BIZARRE footage shows the moment driver less vehicles stalled in the middle of the road during a power outage, leaving passengers stranded.
Autonomous vehicle service Waymo was forced to suspend operations in San Francisco for safety when almost a third of the city was left without power on Saturday night.
As the power outage plunged areas of the tech capital into darkness, traffic signals failed and the driverless vehicles abruptly shut down, causing traffic jams throughout the city.
“We have temporarily suspended our ride-hailing services in the San Francisco Bay Area due to the widespread power outage,” Suzanne Philion, a Waymo spokesperson told The U.S. Sun.
“Our teams are working diligently and in close coordination with city officials to monitor infrastructure stability, and we are hopeful to bring our services back online soon.”
People on the streets quickly started filming the odd moment Waymo vehicles were haphazardly parked on crosswalks and at intersections with their lights flashing, forcing other vehicles to move around them.
Some even claimed that passengers were “trapped inside” with some people pulling up alongside the cars and filming the people stuck in the vehicles at busy intersections.
Blaring horns can be heard in the background of some of the clips shared on social media as the vehicles block off multiple lanes.
“Power outage in San Francisco made all autonomous cars just stop where they are. They can’t do anything. Crazy,” one person wrote on X.
“Can’t even unlock the door to get out,” another claimed.
