What was reported

On January [XXX], 2026 at 7:38 PM PT a Waymo Autonomous Vehicle ("Waymo AV") operating in West Hollywood, California was in a collision involving an SUV on [XXX] near [XXX]. The Waymo AV was traveling eastbound in the left lane on [XXX] when it slowed to a stop to yield to a queue of traffic stopped for a red light at the intersection with [XXX]. While the Waymo AV was stopped, an SUV traveling eastbound in the left lane on [XXX] began to slow as it approached the Waymo AV from behind. As the SUV was slowing, a heavy truck traveling behind the SUV made contact with the rear of the SUV, and as a result of this contact, the front of the SUV then made contact with the rear of the stationary Waymo AV. At the time of the impact, the Waymo AV's Level 4 ADS was engaged in autonomous mode. The SUV and the Waymo AV sustained damage. A passenger in the Waymo AV alleged minor injury. Waymo is reporting this crash under Request No. 1 of Standing General Order 2021-01 because a vehicle involved was towed away.
