Autonomous vehicles from Waymo are showing a dramatic departure from their past cautious approach, driving more aggressively through traffic. Once known for their patience and adherence to stop signs, Waymo’s self-driving taxis now navigate city roads with the confidence of human drivers, sometimes bending traffic rules. This shift has been observed in recent incidents like weaving through a tunnel and making dangerous maneuvers, resulting in increased violations and safety concerns. The change is attributed to the need for more aggressive navigation in bustling urban environments. While some users praise Waymo’s newfound assertiveness, others express concern about the unexpected behavior and safety implications of these changes.
