In the glorious future of self-driving cars, we imagined sleek robotaxis whisking us smoothly to brunch without a single honk. Instead, we get Waymo playing real-life Frogger in Austin—casually cruising the wrong way down a busy street like it’s auditioning for a Grand Theft Auto remake. Human drivers slam on brakes, the Waymo flashes hazards then blinkers like a confused tourist, and finally meanders into a gas station as if nothing happened. Add this to the robotaxi rap sheet: ignoring school buses, crashing into police standoffs, and murdering beloved bodega cats. Who needs human error when AI can be this gloriously chaotic?
