DatabaseSafetyCalifornia record

The only crash record that says who was driving

California has required a filing on every collision involving an autonomous vehicle since 2014, and each filing states whether the car was steering itself at the moment of impact. The same regime publishes the miles those cars drove in autonomous mode. Put together they produce a rate, which is what almost every published robotaxi crash count is missing.

Collisions per million miles driven in autonomous mode

California licenses two kinds of autonomous driving and publishes the miles for each, so each gets its own rate: testing with a safety driver ready to take over, and driverless operation with nobody behind the wheel. Pooling them would put driverless exposure under a drivered crash count, so they are kept apart.

Each rate divides the collisions filed under one permit, while the vehicle was driving itself, by the miles filed under that same permit, over the years shown beneath it. The two permits cover different spans: driverless filings only begin in late 2021, and an operator that loses its permit stops filing. Rates from under a million miles are greyed; under a hundred thousand none is shown.

What changes when the safety driver gets out

The comparison this record makes possible, and the caveat that has to travel with it.

Waymo files 7.5 collisions per million autonomous miles with a safety driver aboard and 19.5 with nobody behind the wheel; Cruise files 17.0 collisions per million autonomous miles with a safety driver aboard and 16.9 with nobody behind the wheel; Zoox files 13.1 collisions per million autonomous miles with a safety driver aboard and 33.4 with nobody behind the wheel. Two of the three roughly double; one is unchanged. These are the same companies, the same software and the same filing obligation, so whatever the gap is, it is not a reporting artefact.

The caveat is that the two permits do not describe the same driving. Driverless operation is dense, urban, low-speed passenger service; testing with a driver aboard includes suburban and highway miles where collisions per mile are lower for anyone, human or otherwise. A higher rate in city traffic is what you would expect from a taxi regardless of what is steering it, so read the gap as a change of operating environment at least as much as a change of driver. What it is not is an artefact of who was allowed to report what: both legs come from the same operators under the same rule.

Across the fleets with enough drivered exposure to carry a firm rate, Pony.ai is lowest at 7.3 per million, against 7.5 for Waymo, 17.0 for Cruise, 13.1 for Zoox. Every figure on this page counts collisions of any severity, including a stationary vehicle being struck from behind, so a low rate means less contact rather than less blame — fault is not recorded anywhere in this record.

When the software was driving, and when a person was

The same vehicles, the same routes, the same reporting duty — split by who was in control at the moment of the collision. No other public record makes this split.

Read the two sides against each other, not as rates. Both counts come from vehicles that spent part of their time under software and part under a person, and California publishes the autonomous miles but not the conventional ones — so the left side can be turned into a rate and the right side cannot. What the comparison does show is that a safety driver in these cars is not a quiet baseline: several fleets filed more collisions with a person at the wheel than without one.

Two records, kept by different agencies, agree on which end gets hit

California marks a collision type on its own form. Most of that legend does not survive a check against the narratives filed with it — the rows marked head-on almost never describe one. The rear-end code does, and it is the largest category in the file.

The robotaxi was not movingThe robotaxi was in motion

What the robotaxi was doing in the 360 filings coded as rear-end collisions. In 88% of those that state a movement it was stopped, slowing or parked — which is to say it was the car that got hit.

That matters because it is arrived at independently. The federal record reaches the same conclusion from contact panels rather than checkboxes: 444 robotaxis struck from behind against 88 that ran into the back of somebody, 5.0 to one. Two agencies, two forms, two coding schemes, one answer. Neither is a finding of fault: a car that brakes harder than the driver behind expected gets rear-ended, and neither record can tell that apart from a driver following too closely.

Only the rear-end code is used here. 326 filings (33%) carry no collision type at all, and the head-on and broadside codes contradict their own narratives too often to publish. The rear-end code agrees with its narrative 66% of the time, which is why it is the only one on this page.

Where they happened, to the corner

One dot is one collision. Every other public robotaxi crash map stops at the city, because a city is the finest location the federal record carries; these filings carry a coordinate, so this is the same data at the resolution it was collected. Switch the view to compare the software's collisions against its safety drivers'.

Miles between disengagements, as each operator counts them

The most quoted and least comparable number in the industry. Every operator writes its own definition of when the software handed back, counts its own, and files the total.

Self-reported. A longer distance between disengagements is not evidence of a better system unless both operators are counting the same event, and they are not.

Why the disengagement figure cannot be read as a safety ranking

The clearest illustration is in the table above.

Two of the programmes on that list report a disengagement roughly every seventy-five miles. They are consumer driver-assistance programmes, and they count every hand-back to the driver. The robotaxi operators report one every twenty to fifty thousand miles, because they count only events their own engineers classify as safety-relevant. The numbers differ by a factor of several hundred and almost none of that is capability.

The sharper illustration is Cruise. It reports the longest distance between disengagements of any operator on the list — better, on paper, than every competitor — and it is the operator whose permits California suspended and which stopped filing entirely. A metric that ranked the company that lost its licence at the top is not measuring what its readers assume it measures. Treat it as a description of how a company defines an event, and read the collision rate above for the thing it is usually mistaken for.

Every filing, in the operator's own words

Each collision as it was reported, with the written account attached. Twelve years of them, filed by every company that has held a permit.

Apr 26, 2026WaymoDriving itselfLos Angeles2025 ZEEKR CM1E RTminor
On April 26, 2026 at 11:48 PM PT a Waymo Autonomous Vehicle (“Waymo AV”) operating in Los Angeles, California was in a collision involving a passenger car on Venice Boulevard at S. Western Avenue. The Waymo AV was stopped facing west in the second from the right lane on Venice Boulevard for a red light at the intersection with S. Western Avenue. While the Waymo AV was stopped, a passenger car initially stopped behind the Waymo AV accelerated sharply to the left, resulting in a loss of traction and counterclockwise rotation across eastbound Venice Boulevard and then back towards westbound Venice Boulevard. As the passenger car continued rotating it re-entered the second from the right lane on Venice Boulevard, approached the Waymo AV from behind, and the rear left side of the passenger car made contact with the rear of the stationary Waymo AV. At the time of the impact, the Waymo AV’s Level 4 ADS was engaged in autonomous mode. Both vehicles sustained damage.

On April 24, 2026 at 1:45 AM PT a Waymo Autonomous Vehicle (“Waymo AV”) operating in San Francisco, California was in a collision involving a passenger car on 7th Street at 16th Street. The Waymo AV was traveling southeastbound in the rightmost lane on 7th Street when it slowed to a stop at a green light at the intersection with 16th Street to yield to a passenger car traveling westbound in the rightmost lane of 16th Street at a high rate of speed. While the Waymo AV was stopped, the passenger car entered the intersection and initiated a wide right turn onto southeastbound 7th Street, against the proper direction of traffic. As the passenger car exited the intersection into the southeastbound lanes of 7th street, the left side of the passenger car made contact with the left side of the stationary Waymo AV. At the time of the impact, the Waymo AV’s Level 4 ADS was engaged in autonomous mode. Both vehicles sustained damage.

On April 19, 2026 at 9:44 PM PT a Waymo Autonomous Vehicle (“Waymo AV”) operating in Los Angeles, California was in a collision involving a passenger car on Boston Street near N. Boylston Street. The Waymo AV was traveling southeastbound on a narrow portion of Boston Street, with vehicles parked at the curb in both directions, in autonomous mode. The Waymo AV transitioned to manual mode and the test driver continued proceeding forward on a curve of Boston Street where the roadway continued to the left, and the front right side of the Waymo AV made contact with the rear left side of a passenger car parked facing southeast at the curb. As a result of this collision, the passenger car was pushed forward, and the front of the passenger car made contact with the rear of a second passenger car parked directly in front of the first passenger car. At the time of the impact, the Waymo AV’s Level 4 ADS was not engaged and a test driver was operating the Waymo AV in manual mode. All three vehicles sustained damage.
Apr 19, 2026ZooxDriving itselfSan Francisco2026 ZOOX AVminor
An unoccupied Zoox autonomous vehicle turned right from Van Ness Avenue onto westbound 20th Street and slowed to a gradual stop for a pickup (Vehicle 2) that was attempting to pull out of a driveway on the right at a westbound angle. Vehicle 2’s driver then attempted a multi-point eastbound turn ahead of the stopped Zoox vehicle without a turn signal. During the multi-point forward-and-reverse maneuver, and with the robotaxi in full view of the driver, the left side of Vehicle 2’s bed swiped the Zoox vehicle’s left front fender multiple times. After failing to complete the turn, Vehicle 2’s driver then backed up, turned right, and continued in the opposite direction along westbound 20th Street without exchanging information. The Zoox vehicle sustained minor damage. No injuries were reported, and police were not notified.
Apr 15, 2026ZooxDriving itselfSan Francisco2019 TOYOTA HIGHLANDERminor
A Zoox vehicle operating in autonomous mode was stopped behind traffic at a red signal on northbound Utah Street at 16th Street in San Francisco. At this time, a passenger vehicle (Vehicle 2) was reversing from a parking spot on the left side of the roadway. The Zoox vehicle honked at the approaching Vehicle 2, but Vehicle 2's rear end made contact with the Zoox vehicle's driver door. The Zoox vehicle operator then disengaged from autonomous mode. The Zoox vehicle sustained minor damage. No injuries were reported, and police were not notified.

On April 12, 2026 at 9:20 PM PT a Waymo Autonomous Vehicle (“Waymo AV”) operating in Los Angeles, California was in a collision involving a passenger car on Western Avenue at Beverly Boulevard. The Waymo AV was traveling southbound in the designated left turn lane on Western Avenue when it proceeded to make an unprotected left turn at a green light at the intersection with Beverly Boulevard. As the Waymo AV was about to exit the intersection a passenger car traveling northbound in the right lane on Western Avenue emerged from behind a bus stopped facing north in the designated left turn lane on northbound Western Avenue. The Waymo AV braked to yield as the passenger car proceeded forward into the intersection and maneuvered to the left, and the front right side of the passenger car made contact with the front right side of the Waymo AV. At the time of the impact, the Waymo AV’s Level 4 ADS was engaged in autonomous mode. Both vehicles sustained damage.

What this record is, and is not

How to read a collision filing.

California requires a written report within ten days of any collision involving a permitted autonomous vehicle, whatever the damage and whoever was at fault. The obligation is on the operator, the narrative is written by the operator, and nothing here has been independently verified. Read a filing as a company’s own account of an event it was legally obliged to disclose, which is a much stronger thing than a press release and a much weaker thing than a finding.

The record covers California only, and only companies holding a California permit. An operator running elsewhere and not here does not appear at all, and one running in both places appears only for the part of its fleet that drives in California. It is not a national picture and should never be read as one.

Autonomous mode means the software was in control when the collision happened. It does not mean the software caused it: a stationary vehicle struck from behind is filed the same way as one that ran into something, and a large share of these narratives describe exactly that. Fault is not a field in this record.

For the federal collision record covering every state, see safety and the collision profile; for how these two records disagree, federal versus state. The vehicles named in these filings are decoded in build and origin.
