GoKawiilNHTSA probes whether Waymo's school bus stop-sign fix actually worked
The NHTSA's Office of Defects Investigation opened a recall query into Waymo on Friday, examining whether a software update the company rolled out in November 2025 actually stopped its robotaxis from passing stopped school buses with flashing lights and deployed stop arms. The agency noted that a majority of such incidents occurred even after Waymo's remedy date. This follows an earlier NHTSA probe that documented Waymo vehicles driving past stopped school buses in Atlanta and Austin.
