I saw plenty of Waymos managing to make it through intersections. They were slow and tentative, but definitely made forward progress.

I think the emergency "phone home" protocol requires a phone, presumably with enough channel capacity for reasonable video feeds. I wouldn't be surprised if the dead in the road Waymos were lacking connectivity.

There is of course also a possibility that the total demand exceeded the number of people at Waymos available for human intervention.
