Mike Johns was on his way to the airport when the Waymo robotaxi began circling a parking lot non-stop

Mike Johns boarded a driverless Waymo taxi to an airport in Scottsdale, Arizona, but it began spinning in circles in a parking lot.

He filmed the moment he was trapped in the vehicle, unable to stop the car or get help.

Johns said he almost missed his flight.

    There’s a button inside to signal the car to pull over. He’s only “trapped” in the sense that he might miss his flight if he has to wait for a different car to come pick him up.

      Gotcha, that does make sense. I was under the impression the parking lot he was going in circles in was at the airport. If that isn’t the case, than I understand his position more. He’s still a Karen though
