If driverless cars are the future, we might see way more of this ... a Waymo took a left turn smack dab into the middle of a police standoff ... and it's all on video.

Viral video spreading on social media shows one of the driverless ride service vehicles taking a left turn in downtown Los Angeles ... cruising right into the middle of some crossfire.

Problem is ... the Waymo goes right past a man who is on the ground face down next to a truck ... as LAPD cars and officers line up behind him and shout commands.

The Chicago Bulls took two L's during the Black Friday matchup against the Charlotte Hornets ... in the actual game and in the fan department, after DaBaby exposed a couple of fair-weather fans as bigger supporters of his than of the team!!!

DaBaby was spotted strolling through Spectrum Center when a female fan asked him to take a pic -- which he happily obliged.

The guys she was with, however, were draped in Chicago Bulls jerseys and DaBaby flat-out refused to flick it up until they stripped them off ... they agreed without blinking.

The results of President Donald Trump's MRI scan in October have been released -- and The White House says everything came back fine.

White House Physician Sean P. Barbabella released a memo Monday saying all of 47's imaging was "perfectly normal," according to NBC News. We now know the MRI was performed to check up on Trump's cardiovascular system and abdomen, after Trump told reporters Sunday night he didn't know which part of his body was examined.

Barbabella stated Trump's heart was pumping blood just fine, and all of his major organs appeared to be in good condition as well.

The president's MRI was described as "preventative," and was performed in an effort to identify any outstanding issues with 47's overall health.

Trump revealed he'd gone through an MRI in October, provoking concern -- sitting U.S. presidents typically only have one physical exam per year. He assured reporters at the time he was completely fine.

Woody Allen's lost tons of supporters over the past few years ... but Scarlett Johansson's sticking by the beleaguered filmmaker.

The actress spoke about her connection to the director in a new interview with The Telegraph and said she wasn't sure how deep the "domino effect" of her willingness to work with Allen really ran.

However, Johansson said her mother had raised her to believe in herself and to stand up for what she believes in -- including working with Allen.

In case you needed a refresher, Allen's adopted daughter Dylan Farrow accused him of sexually abusing her when she was a child ... and her allegations gained further traction when the #MeToo movement gained steam in the late 2010s, leading several figures in Hollywood to distance themselves from the filmmaker. He's denied all the allegations, and he's never been charged with any crimes.

Johansson said she's learned about the importance of knowing when it was appropriate to speak out about touchy topics and when to hold off.

She also said she didn't want to encourage anyone to "silence" themselves when dealing with tough issues, and noted she's grown more comfortable with waiting for the right time to address a hot-button topic.

FYI ... Johansson and Allen have worked together on three movies -- namely "Match Point," "Scoop," and "Vicky Cristina Barcelona," which were released in 2005, 2006, and 2008, respectively.

Luigi Mangione's eyebrows were a dead giveaway he was the man wanted for gunning down a health care executive in cold blood ... at least according to folks who were eating at a McDonald's in Pennsylvania.

In a pretrial hearing Monday in New York, state prosecutors played the 911 call that led to Luigi's arrest at a Mickey D's in Altoona, Pennsylvania.

In the audio, the caller states there's a man in the McDonald's who other customers are suspicious of who "looks like the CEO shooter from New York."

A lower court ruling disqualifying Alina Habba from her position as acting U.S. Attorney for New Jersey has been upheld by an appeals court, it was announced Monday.

Three criminal defendants whose case was being overseen by Habba filed motions arguing her appointment had been unlawful and sought her disqualification -- and for their cases to be thrown out.

Apparently, Luigi Mangione's been pretty chatty behind bars since his arrest last year ... at least according to one officer, who spoke during Luigi's pretrial hearing Monday.

Pennsylvania Department of Corrections Officer Tomas Rivers said he was sitting 2 feet away from Luigi's 8-foot-by-12-foot cell when the two sparked up a wide-ranging conversation about healthcare ... and the media's perception of the infamous shooting.

According to Rivers, they had a casual conversation about private healthcare versus nationalized healthcare ... after Luigi had just been arrested on suspicion of killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson with a firearm.

Megan Thee Stallion and Milagro "Gramz" Cooper's intense courtroom battle is over ... with a jury handing the superstar rapper a big win over her blogging nemesis.

TMZ Hip Hop caught up with Megan as she left the Florida courtroom Monday with her legal team and her former manager Travis Farris right after the verdict was read. As you'd expect, she said she was "happy" the legal ordeal was over.

The jury awarded Megan $75K in damages, which breaks down like this -- $15K for defamation, $8K for emotional distress, $50K for a deep fake porn posted online and an additional $2K for punitive damages and emotional distress.

Under Florida law, Milagro is also liable for Megan's legal fees, so she could be on the hook for way more than the $75K.

The bad news for Megan is we also caught up with Milagro ... who told us she's unsure she can foot that bill.
