Waymo LLC Traffic disruption / obstruction — Scottsdale, AZ, US — October 2023
What is observable from the evidence
No individually observed facts are recorded for this record; see its structured details and sources instead.
Automation status
Driving automation engaged — confirmed
Whether the driving-automation feature was engaged is a separate question from whether it caused the event.
System / software version
Not identified in the available sources.
Causal attribution
Undetermined
The available evidence does not establish a cause. Involvement of a driving-automation system is not the same as its being a cause.
The subject vehicle braked for a hazard and was not itself struck; two other vehicles collided as a consequence. Temporal precedence of the subject's braking does not establish it as the cause (Normalization Rulebook v1, case #14 policy).
What remains unknown
The available evidence does not leave anything specific unestablished for this event.
