It’s kinda funny that the Waymo car is so impatient. I’m pretty sure in this situation I would have just waited until the group ride cleared out to ahead of me and then continued. I would not want to crowd or find my way around them. If I wanted to get past such a big group ride I would probably reroute onto another block since they would keep catching me at stop lights.

Once I saw that Waymo rage pass all of those bicyclists, I knew we finally solved self driving cars.
Yea, I felt the same way. Even though that was an unsafe overtake, I think the Waymo definitely passed the Turing Test with flying colors there.
What's weird is that Waymo seems generally biased to very conservative driving so see it do a random aggressive move is strange.
