(NASDAQ:GOOGL) (NASDAQ:GOOG) autonomous cab service, Waymo's \"Ojai\" Robotaxi, built in collaboration with Chinese automaker Zeekr, crashed into multiple vehicles in Los Angeles' Echo Park area.\nSurveillance camera footage has emerged of the incident on Tuesday, which took place on Sunday, around the Dodger Stadium area in the city. The video shows a Waymo veering off the road onto a grassy patch, before it came back on the street and crashed into multiple parked cars.\nWaymo and Zeekr didn't immediately respond to Benzinga's request for comment.\nEyewitness reports suggest the car was being operated by a human driver, who is reportedly safe, with one witness sharing that the car almost crashed into his mother before she was pushed out of the way in time by his brother.\nThe vehicle was recently unveiled at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2026 and features the company's sixth-generation autonomous driving suite with multiple sensors and a minivan-like design.\nLast year in December, the company faced repeated disruptions in Robotaxi operations in San Francisco, owing to multiple factors, including a PG&E Corp-operated (NYSE:PCG) substation outage in the city, which resulted in Waymo pausing its service. Waymo issued a fleet-wide software update following the incident.\nWaymo had also halted its operations in the San Francisco Bay Area on Christmas Day following severe weather warnings, including flash floods issued by the National Weather Service.\nThe news comes as Waymo has sought to raise more than $10 billion in funding at a $100 billion valuation. Waymo is also among the leaders in the Robotaxi race, with the company's global Robotaxi fleet comprising over 2,500 vehicles.\nWaymo has also eyed an expansion into London, with the company recently carrying out testing in the city with its local partner Moove. The company also reached 14 million paid Robotaxi rides in 2025.\nAlphabet scores well on the Momentum and Quality metrics, but offers poor Value. It also has a favorable price trend in the Short, Medium, and Long term. \nPrice Action: GOOGL surged 0.34% to $335.68 during after-hours trading on Friday.\nCheck out more of Benzinga's Future Of Mobility coverage by following this link.\nPhoto courtesy: Shutterstock","kind":"highlight","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":false,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"-1","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":0,"need_auth":false,"code":"91000000","status":"200"},"commentList":[],"isCommentEnd":true,"newsSizeData":{"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"favoriteSize":0,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false},"APP":{"userAgent":"Mozilla/5.0 AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko; compatible; ClaudeBot/1.0; +claudebot@anthropic.com)","isDev":false,"isTTM":true,"tenantId":"TBGLOBAL","deviceId":"web-server-community-laohu8-v3","version":"4.36.2","shortVersion":"4.36.2","platform":"web","vendor":"web","appName":"ttm","isIOS":false,"isAndroid":false,"isTiger":false,"isTHS":false,"isWeiXin":false,"isWeiXinMini":false,"isWeiBo":false,"isQQ":false,"isBaiduSwan":false,"isBaiduBox":false,"isDingTalk":false,"isToutiao":false,"isOnePlus":false,"isHuaWei":false,"isXiaomi":false,"isXiaomiWebView":false,"isOppo":false,"isVivo":false,"isSamsung":false,"isMobile":false},"href":"/m/news/2606679969","isCrawlerRequest":true}
