Incident 16793 Report
Lyft Driver in Boca Raton, Florida, Allegedly Used Purported Google Gemini-Generated Image to Support False $75 Damage Fee

2026-05-16

A Lyft driver in Boca Raton, Florida, allegedly submitted an AI-generated image showing spilled food and drink to support a $75 damage fee against teenage passengers. The riders' family identified a Google Gemini logo in the image and disputed the claim. Lyft later acknowledged the image was AI-generated, reimbursed the charge, and removed the driver from the platform.

Incident 15991 Report
Waymo Robotaxi Reportedly Remained Immobilized While Vandals Smashed Vehicle with Passenger Inside

2026-05-09

On May 9, 2026, two men reportedly stopped and vandalized a Waymo robotaxi carrying passenger Sherman Watson at Pierce and Lombard streets in San Francisco. The autonomous driving system reportedly remained immobilized after one man grabbed the bumper, and remote support declined Watson's request to move the vehicle while the attackers smashed its windows and climbed on it. Watson reported a possible glass cut, sought therapy, and said he feared he would be killed.
