Waymo, a prominent American self-driving taxi service provider, recently made the decision to halt its operations throughout San Francisco. This move came in the wake of viral online videos depicting Waymo's autonomous vehicles causing significant traffic congestion amidst a citywide blackout in San Francisco. During the evening in question, Susan Fillion, a spokesperson for the company, remarked, "In light of the extensive power outage gripping San Francisco, we have opted to temporarily cease our ride-hailing services. This is a precautionary measure aimed at safeguarding passenger well-being and ensuring unimpeded access for emergency responders."
