WATCH: Driverless Waymo Taxi Drives in Circles, Trapping Passenger in Dizzy Spin “My Monday was fine till I got into one of Waymo’s ‘humanless’ cars,” Johns wrote on LinkedIn. “I get in, buckle up (safety first) and the saga begins. This autonomous vehicle said to heck with GPS, the car just went around in circles, eight circles at that.” While the car was spinning in circles, Johns was desperately trying to get help from a customer service representative over the phone. “It’s circling around a parking lot. I’ve got my seatbelt on, I can’t get out of the car. Has this been hacked? What’s going on?” Johns said in the video, complaining that he felt “dizzy.” After several uncomfortable minutes of the tech entrepreneur being trapped in the backseat, the Waymo representative was finally able to get the car to pull over, “allowing him to get to the airport just in time to catch his flight back to LA,” CBS News reported. However, Johns was not even sure if he was talking to a real human or an AI bot. “Where’s the empathy? Where’s the human connection to this?” Johns told CBS. “It’s just, again, a case of today’s digital world. A half-baked product and nobody meeting the customer, the consumers, in the middle.” The driverless car company currently operates in the Phoenix-Scottsdale area of Arizona, as well as San Francisco and Los Angeles, California. Waymo is owned by Alphabet — the same parent company as Google. The technology has received mixed reviews, with some passengers — especially women — complaining of facing harassment and other safety concerns while trying to ride to their destinations, Breitbart News reported. In one shocking incident in San Francisco, a female Waymo passenger named Amina recorded two men blocking her vehicle’s path to demand her cell phone number, while the car was unable to maneuver around them: 🚨Warning to women in SF 🚨 I love Waymo but this was scary 😣 2 men stopped in front of my car and demanded that I give my number. It left me stuck as the car was stalled in the street. Thankfully, it only lasted a few minutes... Ladies please be aware of this pic.twitter.com/6VEqb1WoJb — Amina (@Amina_io) September 30, 2024

UK ex pm Gordon Brown. What!!?? Explain yourself, Gordon Brown. https://t.co/zeBkYFKWlQ — Elon Musk (@elonmusk) January 6, 2025 & he was famous for something else he did for the UK too. 🚨If you use Dollars, houses in the US are around 1000% higher than they were in 1975. 🚨If you use gold coins, houses in the US are 25% cheaper than they were in 1975 🚨Now do you understand the role of gold, and why it will always win? pic.twitter.com/sNvwriZWLy — Northstar (@NorthstarCharts) January 5, 2025 Not sure the UK Labour Party are "for the people" anymore.
