A Waymo was caught on video driving through the South Pearl Farmers Market during set up on Sunday morning.

According to the market organizers, the Waymo entered the market before it was open to the public, and the vehicle drove around the barricades at Washington St. and Florida Ave., turned north onto South Pearl St. and continued through the market.

All barricades and staff were in place at the entrance, but the access points also need to allow authorized vehicles into the site during setup, organizers said.

The Waymo was moving through the market at very slow speeds, and the farmer's market team moved ahead of the vehicle to alert vendors and crew memebers it was coming through. No one was injured.
