"According to police, a Honda sedan traveling eastbound on Chandler Boulevard had to swerve to avoid striking a vehicle traveling northbound on Los Feliz Drive. As the Honda swerved, it continued eastbound into the westbound lanes of Chandler Boulevard and hit the Waymo van."

Waymo car appears to not be at fault.

“Waymo car hit by a vehicle in Chandler”.

But hey, you gotta spin that title as much as you can waiting for the third paragraph to reveal the self-driving car was not at fault.

If the car was really smart, it could've avoided the oncoming vehicle (or at least ensured the driver is not hurt).
From the video from the Wyamo vehicle it's pretty hard to argue that it could have done anything in this case.
