Child safety at risk I saw a child (estimate 3-5 y/o) sitting in front seat of Waymo vehicle at 2:08pm at Bedford Dr. and Peck Dr. in Beverly Hills, CA. There did not appear to be an adult in the vehicle.

This vehicle is subject to NHTSA Recall 26V067 (JLR campaign H570/H571/H572) for high-voltage battery thermal overload risk. The recall remedy instructs owners to park and charge the vehicle outside and away from structures. My property does not allow for this: the vehicle must be garaged in a bay directly beneath an occupied room, adjacent to two other vehicles, and near the home's main electrical panel and gas furnace. There is no alternative outdoor charging location on my property. I am currently unable to comply with the manufacturer's own safety instruction for this recall, which leaves me either storing a known fire-risk vehicle against manufacturer guidance or unable to use the vehicle at all. The permanent remedy for this recall population is still under development as of this filing. I have submitted a written demand to JLR for repurchase and have received no substantive response as of August 4, 2026.

On XXX, I was the sole passenger in a driverless Waymo (XXX) in [XXX]. Pickup: Chase Field ~4:14 PM. At ~4:25 PM on [XXX], a multi-lane urban arterial, the automated driving system decelerated the vehicle without cause to ~10 mph and held that speed in the number one (leftmost) lane. There was no obstacle, pedestrian, emergency vehicle, work zone, signal, or traffic condition to explain it. Traffic passed at normal speed in adjacent lanes. The system merged to the center lane, then returned to the number one lane, still at ~10 mph. The vehicle was a slow-moving obstruction in a live travel lane. There was no steering wheel, no pedal, no human driver. I could not accelerate, pull over, or exit the lane. My exposure to a rear-end collision was created solely by the ADS and could be ended only by the ADS, which was not ending it. I called Waymo rider support. The vehicle remained at ~10 mph. About 30 seconds in, a remote agent overrode the system and restored normal speed. Key finding: the malfunction did not self-correct. The vehicle did not detect the anomaly, resolve it, or degrade to a safe state. It operated hazardously until a remote human took control. The system’s own safety architecture did not catch it. A human did, only because I called. Waymo confirmed in writing that it verified the event as described, then declined to provide root cause, telemetry, or any investigative outcome absent legal process. I request NHTSA determine: (1) whether this was reported under the Standing General Order for ADS vehicles, or deemed below threshold and on what basis; (2) whether unexplained deceleration, sustained low-speed travel in live lanes, or failure-to-self-correct events have been reported for this fleet in the Phoenix ODD; (3) whether an ADS that cannot correct its own hazardous speed loss without remote human rescue meets any reasonable safety expectation for driverless operation on public arterials. Please contact me. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
