Mike Johns was on his way to the airport when the Waymo robotaxi began circling a parking lot non-stop

Mike Johns boarded a driverless Waymo taxi to an airport in Scottsdale, Arizona, but it began spinning in circles in a parking lot.

He filmed the moment he was trapped in the vehicle, unable to stop the car or get help.

Johns said he almost missed his flight.

    Yeah, that’s the time I start jumping over the seat to pull a brake or something. Needs to be a hardware kill switch in the passenger reach here, no calling in or hoping some app works.

      Does it have a brake petal? If so I’d imagine that it would still function, even in FSD. You may still be stuck inside the car if the doors won’t unlock until the trip is over.
