Waymo Recalls 3,871 Robotaxis Over Risk of Driving Into Freeway Construction Zones
Waymo has filed a safety recall with NHTSA for 3,871 vehicles after its autonomous cars entered closed freeway construction zones. The issue stems from a software logic failure that prioritizes hazard avoidance over recognizing work zones. No collisions were reported, but Waymo has restricted all freeway operations until an over-the-air fix is deployed.
