A heavy truck, facing northwest in the adjacent left lane of opposing traffic, was stopped partially in the southbound lane of the parking lot driveway. As the Waymo AV was slowing, the heavy truck proceeded forward, and the Waymo AV maneuvered to the right and slowed to a stop near the south curb to yield..

At the time of the impact, the Waymo AV's Level 4 ADS was engaged in autonomous mode. The Waymo AV sustained damage.

Waymo is reporting this crash under Request No. 1 of [Standing General Order 2021-01](/regulations/nhtsa-av-framework.md) because a vehicle involved was towed away. Waymo may supplement or correct its reporting with additional information as it may become available.
