Two Waymo Robotaxis Allegedly Contributed to Bike-Lane Collision That Injured San Francisco Cyclist

Description

San Francisco cyclist Jenifer Hanki alleged that on February 16, 2025, one driverless Waymo stopped beside a marked bike lane at a no-stopping curb without warning a passenger who opened a rear door into her path, while a second Waymo crossed into the lane and restricted her escape. Hanki said she suffered brain, spinal, and soft-tissue injuries after striking the door and second vehicle. Her lawsuit alleged failures in Waymo's Safe Exit system and passenger drop-off controls.
