Would be interesting to know what the Waymo car did in this circumstance. I imagine it would've hit the brakes when the sedan came into its lane, but not sure whether it would've swerved or not in an attempt to avoid the accident.

#5“Waymo car hit by a vehicle in Chandler”.
But hey, you gotta spin that title as much as you can waiting for the third paragraph to reveal the self-driving car was not at fault.

If the car was really smart, it could've avoided the oncoming vehicle (or at least ensured the driver is not hurt).

Good point. Will call them crashes in future.

From the video from the Wyamo vehicle it's pretty hard to argue that it could have done anything in this case.
