A man who took an autonomous taxi from Waymo was left completely stunned after the vehicle was pulled over by police during the trip.
The incident was shared by content creator Joe Setaro in a video posted to his TikTok profile. In the clip, Joe can be seen sitting in the back seat of the car while watching, astonished, as police officers moved around outside the vehicle.
“Tell me how it’s possible that I got pulled over in a Waymo,” he wrote in the text overlay on the video, adding in the caption: “Someone must be out to get me because this wasn’t on my bingo card.”
His post has already racked up more than 3.8 million views, over 500,000 likes, and hundreds of comments from users who were equally shocked by the situation. “Is the officer talking to customer service?” joked one TikTok user.
“How did the car know it was supposed to pull over?” asked another. “Who gets the ticket?” questioned a third user. “Imagine showing this to someone from the 1800s,” another commenter wrote.
