San Francisco Waymo robotaxi service paused following power failure
Autonomous driving company Waymo temporarily halted its robotaxi fleet in San Francisco this Saturday. The disruption was triggered by a PG&E power outage resulting from faulty equipment at a substation. The company eventually restricted the suspension to the specific zones most affected by the issue. Waymo reported that operations were fully restored following a one-hour safety pause, confirming that no riders were left stuck during the incident.
