Report narrative

What was reported

On September [XXX], 2021 at 11:39 AM PDT a Waymo Autonomous Vehicle ('Waymo AV') operating in San Francisco, California was in a collision involving a passenger vehicle on the 400 block of [XXX]. While in autonomous mode, the Waymo AV was stopped behind a double-parked passenger vehicle in the right-hand lane of traffic with slow-moving (same directional) traffic to its left. The driver of the Waymo AV (in the driver's seating position) transitioned the vehicle to manual mode and initiated a lane change into the congested left-hand lane. Before the driver of the Waymo AV could complete this maneuver, the passenger vehicle in front of the Waymo AV shifted into reverse and proceeded to make contact with the rear right sensor of the Waymo AV. At the time of the impact the Waymo AV's Level 4 ADS was not engaged and a test driver was operating the Waymo AV in manual mode. Both vehicles sustained minor damage. Waymo is reporting this crash under Request No. 2 of Standing General Order 2021-01. Waymo will supplement or correct its reporting with additional information as it may become available. This report was submitted from the Pacific time zone on the required date.
