The Georgia city’s northwest Buckhead neighborhood has been overrun in the last couple of weeks by empty, driverless ride-share vehicles due to an apparent routing behavior issue.

"It’s almost every little cul-de-sac in our area, so I think it’s a problem," a neighbor who lives on embattled Battleview Drive told WSB-TV.

Video taken of the rogue Waymos shows them incessantly circling through a cul-de-sac and multiple cars causing a backup on one street after a neighbor tried to block the cars from entering the cul-de-sac.

I told a couple of guys at work about seeing that article. One of them said his daughter that lives in town has used a Waymo taxi. He said that she told him it was clean & safe just a lot slower than using Uber. It was designed to be overly cautious. I just don't trust the driverless car thing.

You gotta be a complete idiot to get in a computer robot taxi cap with no driver

Once upon a time, it was said: "You gotta be a complete idiot to get in a carriage with no horse".

The Endless March of Progress...

If you ever go into one of the cities where these are on the street you will likely encounter them. And the company is expanding into more cities, as fast as they can.
