First responders have had to take control of Waymo vehicles and move them during emergency situations, including in at least two active crime scenes, TechCrunch found.
In plenty of places (in the US) it’s the exact same companies doing both. Mack Towing is a pretty good example. The police where I live use them to tow vehicles that are illegally parked or considered abandoned. Those places charge a fee ($400 per day) to the person who owns the vehicle and the fee must be paid before the vehicle will be returned to the customer. They really don’t only deal in cash (although I can understand why they might not take credit card payments in this eventuality because of the risk of a chargeback).
