Super creepy guys harass a woman in a Waymo [1]
['Jason Weisberger']
Date: 2024-10-03
Creepy weirdos trapped a Waymo and harassed the passenger, demanding her phone number to set her free.
It seems natural that jerks will find a way to abuse technology. In this video, a woman is held hostage in a driverless taxi as some a-holes harass her. I am not sure why she declined Police assistance, but she might likely have had the car waiting around hours for the response.
🚨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…

Something seems disconnected in the SFist story, as it says the rider received support from Waymo but also that they didn't call her until hours after the incident. I am not sure which it is, but I am willing to believe their customer support sucks.
