What is a Waymo car?
( — Waymo vehicles have been in headlines over the last few days after anti-immigration enforcement protestors set some of them on fire in Los Angeles. But what are they? A Waymo car is a fully autonomous, self-driving vehicle operated by the company Waymo, a Google subsidiary. It operates on a rideshare service application called Waymo One, which offers on-demand, self-driving transportation in select cities, according to How does ICE know who to deport? Waymo began in 2009 in San Francisco as an experiment and went on in 2016 to become a fully-operational robotaxi service in some major cities. 'The Waymo Driver is the embodiment of fully autonomous technology that is always in control from pickup to destination,' the company said on its website. 'Passengers don't even need to know how to drive. They can sit in the back seat, relax, and enjoy the ride with the Waymo Driver getting them to their destination safely.' Waymo cars are currently available in Phoenix, AZ, San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Austin, TX, according to its website. They are reportedly coming soon to Atlanta, GA, and Miami, FL.

LaGrange honors two heroes who stopped runaway car as driver suffered seizure
LaGRANGE, Ga. (WRBL) – On Friday morning, the Troup County Sheriff's Office and the City of LaGrange will present the Citizen Bravery Award to two men who took bold action to stop a medical emergency from turning into a tragedy. Honorees Zion Reed, 22, and Drew Garner are being recognized for rescuing a woman suffering a seizure while driving on Hamilton Road on May 2. Reed, a mobile propane technician, leapt into action when he saw the driver veer into oncoming traffic near the Bryant Lake subdivision. Witness Drew Garner, who captured the event in photos and helped call 911, described Reed as sprinting toward the car, diving in headfirst, and slamming the brake — stopping the vehicle just feet away from a dump truck. The driver was convulsing and vomiting, but thanks to Reedbravery, she survived. 'This lady was having a seizure while driving, and the Lord gave me the strength to stop her vehicle before an accident occurred,' Reed later shared. 'Lord, I thank you for putting me in this position this morning.' Reed's mother added a touching detail — Zion was born weighing just 1 lb. 14 oz. 'We knew he was going to be special,' she said. In an emotional message sent to WRBL, the woman whose life was saved personally thanked both men. She said she is grateful beyond words and overwhelmed by their courage, saying she may not be alive today if not for their actions. The Troup County Sheriff's Office and City of LaGrange say both men embody the very best of their community. The award ceremony will be held at 9:00 AM during the City Council Meeting at 208 Ridley Avenue. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

Highway robbery: Scammers bring back classic scam
(WHTM) — Ever get a text message saying you owe money for a toll? The messages know how to get your attention. They claim you have an outstanding traffic ticket and that if you don't pay immediately, you'll lose your registration and driving privileges. That got drive Scott Ruby's attention. 'I know that they can be awfully confusing to people, especially my age, who take this stuff for truth,' Ruby said. As summer returns, so does this infamous scam. States are warning drivers they will never text demanding money. The bottom line: Don't respond to unsolicited texts. Easy enough for Ruby — 'I owe so much that I ignore them anyway.' If you're ever unsure, call the state's agency directly at its official number to verify. Find more stories on Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
