California authorities investigating if attack on Google’s Waymo car is latest in series of protests targeting autonomous vehicles
Authorities in California are working to determine if the destruction of a driverless taxi in an arson attack by a mob of lunar new year revelers was the latest in a series of protests targeting autonomous vehicles in the state.
According to the San Francisco fire department, which posted images of the incinerated SUV on Twitter/X, a group of people jumped on the electric vehicle in the city’s Chinatown district Saturday night, smashing windows and spraying it with graffiti before setting it alight with a firework.
