Waymo has confirmed that on Sunday night one of its driverless robotaxis ran over a small dog in San Francisco, in yet another instance of the company’s cars striking a beloved pet.
“Unfortunately, a Waymo vehicle made contact with a small, unleashed dog in the roadway,” a spokesperson told the San Francisco news outlet Mission Local on Monday.
“We have not received a status update on the dog,” the Waymo spokesperson told the outlet.
Trying to call customer support,” the passenger wrote in a post on the night of the accident.
The collision comes just weeks after another Waymo robotaxi killed a bodega cat named Kit Kat who was widely adored by locals in a San Francisco neighborhood.
