Report narrative

What was reported

On October [XXX], 2025 at 8:42 PM PT a Waymo Autonomous Vehicle ("Waymo AV") operating in Santa Monica, California was in a collision involving an SUV on [XXX] near [XXX]. The Waymo AV was traveling southeastbound on [XXX] in the left lane when it came to a stop for a stop sign at the intersection with a parking lot driveway near [XXX]. While the Waymo AV was stopped, an SUV traveling southeastbound on [XXX] in the left lane approached the Waymo AV from behind and the front of the SUV made contact with the rear of the stationary Waymo AV. The Waymo AV proceeded southeastbound past the intersection and parked at the curb with its hazard lights activated, and the SUV followed and parked behind the Waymo AV. After remaining stopped for approximately 11 minutes, the driver of the SUV executed a series of U-turn maneuvers across [XXX], eventually proceeding southeastbound to pass to the left of the Waymo AV. The SUV again executed a U-turn, proceeded northwestbound past the Waymo AV, then made another U-turn to proceed southeastbound again, at which point the SUV approached the Waymo AV from behind and the front right side of the SUV made contact with the rear left side of the stationary Waymo AV. At the time of both impacts, the Waymo AV's Level 4 ADS was engaged in autonomous mode. Both vehicles sustained damage. The rear passenger in the Waymo AV was not belted at the time of the second collision. All three passengers in the Waymo AV alleged minor injuries. Waymo is reporting this crash under Request No. 1 of Standing General Order 2021-01 a vehicle involved was towed away. Waymo may supplement or correct its reporting with additional information as it may become available.
