🚕 Tesla Officially Begins Testing Robo-Taxis in Austin

🚗 Tesla has entered the testing phase of its self-driving taxi in Austin — just days before the projected commercial launch scheduled for June 12. The company appeared for the first time in the city’s autonomous vehicle operator registry with a “testing” status. Unlike Waymo, which conducted trials for a year — first with safety drivers, then without — Tesla only began testing without backup drivers in late May. This raises doubts as to whether the service will be ready for full-scale deployment this month.
