Waymo’s driverless vehicle is reported to be repeatedly getting stuck on a dead-end street in east London, causing residents to wake up during early morning hours. According to a resident’s account shared on social media, the car entered a narrow street and then attempted to reverse out, leading to activity around 4:15am on Sunday. The Evening Standard reports that the incident sparked a commotion on the Shoreditch dead-end street as the vehicle tried to navigate itself free. The reports also indicate the problem has occurred multiple times within a short period: the Daily Mail says the car has been stuck on the same type of street three times in a week. The outlets describe the vehicle as part of Waymo’s autonomous fleet operating in London, with residents disturbed when the car’s movements or attempts to extract itself occurred overnight. None of the sources provides details on the vehicle’s location coordinates, the duration of each incident, or any formal statement from Waymo. The reported incidents are framed primarily through residents’ complaints and local coverage.
