The SGO file, in a form you can search
NHTSA publishes the crash reports as three CSV files of 116 columns each, with several versions of the same report mixed in. This is the same data as one table: driverless systems (ADS) and Level 2 driver assistance side by side, 2021 to today including NHTSA's archive, one row per report at its latest version, every row traceable to its NHTSA report number. Free, CC BY 4.0, refreshed from NHTSA on every pipeline run.

On January [XXX], 2025 at 6:07 PM PT a Waymo Autonomous Vehicle (Waymo AV) operating in San Francisco, CA was in a collision involving a passenger vehicle near the intersection of [XXX] and [XXX]. The Waymo AV, which had no occupants, was traveling northwestbound in the middle of three lanes on [XXX] and came to a stop in a queue of traffic. Shortly after, a passenger vehicle came to a stop behind the Waymo AV. While the Waymo AV and the other passenger vehicle were stopped, an SUV approached from behind at an extreme rate of speed and made contact with the passenger vehicle behind the Waymo AV, which then made contact with the rear bumper of the Waymo AV. According to the San Francisco Police Department, the Waymo AV then began to rotate clockwise and, as it was rotating, the front of the SUV made contact with the passenger side of the Waymo AV. The rear of the Waymo AV then made contact with the rear driver side corner of another passenger car that had just begun to proceed straight on northbound [XXX]. According to the San Francisco Police Department, at least two other vehicles were involved in the crash and one of the occupants of the vehicles involved in the crash and a domestic animal were declared deceased at the scene. At the time of the impact, the Waymo AVs Level 4 ADS was engaged in autonomous mode. The Waymo AV, the passenger vehicle behind the Waymo AV, and the SUV sustained severe damage. The extent of the damage to the other three vehicles is currently unknown. Waymo received notice that five passengers in four of the vehicles involved sustained injuries of varying severity. Waymo is reporting this crash under Request No. 1 of Standing General Order 2021-01 because of a fatality. Waymo may supplement or correct its reporting with additional information as it may become available. |
What this table is and is not. Rows are the operators' own filings, not verified cases, and a filing does not establish fault. NHTSA redacts most Level 2 narratives as confidential business information, so the text column is empty for most Tesla rows; the structured columns are not redacted. When one crash is filed by several entities, an operator and the fleet owner for example, NHTSA gives the filings one same_incident_id; the "one row per incident" view collapses them into a single row at the highest severity any filer alleged, with the count of filings and every report number beside it, so a count of incidents or deaths is not inflated by duplicate filings. The table joins NHTSA's current files (incidents from June 2025, after the third amended order) with its 2021-2025 archive, which used an older layout: severity labels, roadway and weather fields differ between the two sets, and the source_set column in the CSV says which one a row came from. Level 2 reports are shown here because the file contains them, but they are not cases in the register, which counts a vehicle as a robot only when nobody inside is responsible for driving.
