NHTSA investigates Waymo over 20 school bus safety violations in Austin despite software fix.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is investigating Waymo after 20 incidents in Austin where its self-driving cars passed stopped school buses with flashing lights and extended stop arms.
The Austin Independent School District reported the violations, including a recent one after Waymo claimed a software fix on November 17, and urged the company to halt operations near schools—requests Waymo declined.
Waymo acknowledged the issue, calling it a safety concern, and announced a voluntary software recall to improve behavior around school buses.
The company cited strong safety records, noting its vehicles have fewer injury crashes and pedestrian incidents than human-driven cars.
The investigation focuses on whether the technology complies with federal safety standards for school zones.
