The robotaxi company said it detected “a violation of our terms of service involving a firearm,” pulled the car over, and alerted emergency services, according to the Los Angeles Times. As of earlier this year, Waymo has about 70 “remote assistance agents” on duty at a given time in the US and the Philippines, who “provide advice and support to the Waymo Driver but do not directly control, steer, or drive the vehicle. ” Waymo has not said whether the people reviewing possible violations inside its cars are among those agents.

Hayley Tsukayama, director of state affairs at the Electronic Frontier Foundation, called Waymo’s public policies “very broad. ” Riders shouldn’t have to infer from language about “safety and security” that their behavior could result in a police response, she said, adding that Waymo should clearly disclose that possibility before passengers get into the car.
