"Autonomous Safety Concerns Rise as Waymo Recalls Self-Driving Vehicles In a move that highlights the ongoing challenges of developing reliable autonomous vehicles, Waymo has announced a voluntary recall of its robotaxis in the wake of an incident in April where one of its vehicles drove into floodwaters.
