It wasn’t the autonomous vehicles, it was the power outage. The signal lights were out and the vehicles just stopped because it couldn’t detect the traffic signals.

I know. Would a autonomous self driving Tesla do the same thing in a power outage?

According to Elon, Tesla's Robotaxis were unaffected by the power outage. Waymos were abruptly stopping in middle of intersections.
