Identify a vehicle

Find a robotaxi provider's responder helpline from a photo.

Keep only the vehicle you need identified in frame. JPEG, PNG or WebP.

Your photos may be used to train the identifier and for AV safety research. Photos and results stay private to project maintainers until a maintainer deletes them.

Review photo

Selected photo of the vehicle

    If the photo shows more than one vehicle, tap or click the one you need identified. With a keyboard, the arrow keys place and move the point on the photo (with Shift, in bigger steps) and Delete clears it.

    Location context Optional

    Where you are now can help identification, since AV providers run service only in some areas. It is a hint, not where the photo was taken, and identification works without it.

    None

    Your browser asks first. Your position is rounded to about a kilometer and looked up with the US Census Bureau's geocoder; only the city and state come back, and only they are kept.

      Incident reports

      Public reports of crashes, near misses and other incidents involving self-driving vehicles.

      Reports are unverified. Photos are reviewed before publication.

          About these reports

          These public accounts support AV safety research and help AV providers and regulators review reported incidents.

          Reports are published as submitted. Maintainers review photos and may remove inappropriate or clearly false reports. Review does not verify an account, a photo, or who was at fault.

          All reports

          Report an incident

          Report a crash, near miss, unsafe driving or obstruction involving a suspected self-driving vehicle. Anyone can report. No account or photo needed.

          Reports are public. Your report appears here as soon as you publish it, and you can't edit or delete it afterwards. A maintainer can remove it, which takes it and its photos off the site at once; copies in encrypted backups are normally deleted within 16 days.

          Reports aren't sent to AV providers, government agencies or emergency services. In an emergency, call 911.

            What happened? Required

            What the vehicle did, the road conditions, and how it affected people or other vehicles. Stick to what you saw rather than who you think was at fault. You don't need to know whether it was driving itself. Leave out names, phone numbers and other personal details.

            When did it happen? Optional

            When the incident took place, not when you report it. Approximate is fine.

            Local time where it happened. Leave the time blank if you're not sure.

            Where did it happen? Optional

            Where the incident took place, which may not be where you are now. Reports never use your device's location.

            Which vehicle? Optional

            What you believe the vehicle was: who runs it, and its make and model. Give whatever you know; one of the two is fine.

            Photos Optional

            Photos of the vehicle or the scene, if you have them. JPEG, PNG or WebP; no video or documents.

            Photos appear once a maintainer approves them. They're then public with your report until a maintainer removes it, and a copy someone has saved can't be taken back. We may also use them to train the identifier and for AV safety research.

            Faces and license plates aren't blurred, so choose carefully, and don't add photos of injured people. Location data stored in a photo is removed. A photo you used to identify a vehicle stays private unless you choose it here.

              Shown publicly with your report. Leave it blank to post anonymously.

                    Photo storage

                    The room the photos kept for each purpose take, against the threshold configured for it.

                    Nothing is deleted to make room. Once a purpose or the whole store reaches its threshold, new photos for it are refused until records are deleted. Reports without photos and the provider directory keep working.

                    Seen unusual robotaxi behavior?

                    Anyone can report a crash, near miss or unsafe driving involving a self-driving vehicle. You don't need a photo or an account.

                    Research prototype, not an emergency service. Identification can't tell whether a vehicle was driving itself. Helpline details come from the AV providers' own published sources, and each shows when it was last checked.
