Waymo has become the latest driverless car company to issue a recall after two of its cars collided with the same pickup truck within minutes. 

The Google-owned company issued a voluntary recall notice for self-driving software previously used by its fleet of driverless cars on Tuesday, following an incident in December that saw two of its vehicles "make contact" with a towed pickup truck.
