Newly released body camera video showing a Waymo self-driving taxi interfering with first responders as they race to a massive and deadly natural gas explosion

Here's ABC's Morgan Norwood. 
>> Tonight as this massive fire tore through a Dallas apartment complex, this new body camera video showing a 
Waymo, a driverless car, slowing first responders as they scrambled to secure the scene. 
>> Fully engulfed. 
>> This deadly fire killing three people and injuring several others. Watch as 
this Dallas County Constable pleads with support to move the vehicle. 
>> This call may be recorded for quality assurance. 
>> Okay, you Yes, you need to move this car ASAP, please. 
>> Waymo reportedly unlocking the car, allowing the deputy to drive it out of the way. 
>> Hold on, man. Can you go? 
>> The system seems to be having a minor issue. 
>> This mishap just the latest in a series of wayward Waymo incidents. 
>> There's nobody in there. 
>> And with tonight, Waymo is saying that vehicle was in the process of completing a three-point turn in order to leave the area. 
They add that they're working closely with Dallas law enforcement moving forward. Whit. 
>> Okay, Morgan Norwood, thanks so much.
