Waymo pulled over in San Bruno for making illegal U-turn; no driver

SAN BRUNO, Calif. (KGO) -- Think autonomous cars are programmed to follow traffic laws? Think again.

San Bruno police officers pulled over a Waymo car with no driver Friday night while conducting a DUI crackdown.

Police said the Waymo made an illegal U-turn in front of them.

The department shared photos of the traffic stop.

Cellphone video shows Waymos stalled in San Francisco's Marina District as people climb and flip off from the robotaxis.

No citation was issued because there was no driver to cite.

That'll change next July when a new California law takes effect allowing law enforcement to issue citations to operators of driverless vehicles.
