San Francisco tennis coach says a Waymo drove off with pricey equipment
By Alyssa Goard Published April 25, 2025


A San Francisco passenger claims a Waymo driverless taxi drove off with his expensive tennis equipment inside. More than two months later, he still has no idea where his possessions went.

As first reported by the San Francisco Standard, the passenger is filing a small claims suit against the company.

Dan Linley lives in lower Nob Hill and spends his days going back and forth between his work as a high school tennis coach and coaching tennis lessons.

"I've been doing it 30 years now, it's how I make my living," Linley said.

Like many San Franciscans, he doesn't have a car. Lately, he's been getting around the city by riding Waymo driverless taxis.

On February 7, at around 5:30 p.m., Linley said the Waymo he was riding in dropped him off at Golden Gate Park, but the trunk, which was filled with his expensive tennis equipment, didn't open.

Waymo said in an online forum that once riders reach their destination, the trunk will automatically open when the rider exits the vehicle. But Linley said that didn't happen on this occasion. Having used the Waymo app before, Linley knows a button in the app can allow passengers to open the trunk. But this time, Linley said there was no option to open the trunk through the app, and the trunk wasn't opening on its own.

"So I called customer service to see if someone could open the car remotely for me," Linley recalled. "A guy picked up the phone, he was very very nice, and in the middle of him trying to open up the trunk, the car drove away."

"And I’m like, 'you know the car is driving away, and I have a picture of it, I don't know what you want me to do'" Linley said. "He was very calm and very nice and he goes, 'Well I’ll file a lost and found report for you.'"

I am more worried about people just leaving their trash and half eaten lunch.
