Most public information on the launch of Robotaxi de Tesla comes from a small group of influencers invited by the company to be part of those to make the first trips of its new technology. Many have financial participation in the company; Others have built media careers around the promotion and pomniomopically of the work of the electric-developing company. However, some of the online videos show Robotaxie Tesla making mistakes.
A video shows a robotaxi Briefly cross a double yellow line To roll in the opposite traffic, an apparent sloppy attempt to make a left turn. Another show The human instructor stopped the Tesla to avoid a UPS truck that fell back in a parking space. Another show The car appearing at “Phantom Brake” – to a sudden and brutal stop for no apparent reason.
Autonomous vehicles are mainly regulated at the state level, and the current Texas rules allow companies to test and deploy on its public roads. The US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the country’s Federal Road Safety Dog, can only intervene after technology is already on the roads and has proven to be dangerous. In a declaration sent by email responding to documented incidents, an NHTSA spokesperson wrote that the agency “is aware of the incidents referenced and is in contact with the manufacturer to collect additional information”.
According to law, developers of autonomous vehicles must report certain incident data to the NHTSA, although the Trump administration has limited information developers are required to share And allowed them to protect part of the public view.
The new law of Texas, Senate bill 2807Requires autonomous vehicle companies to obtain operating permits before taking public roads. Companies must also provide the state of emergency intervention procedures for the first stakeholders. The law does not lead to before September 1. Wired asked the Texas Public Security Department if he had received Tesla’s emergency intervention procedures before the launch of her service on Sunday; The ministry did not respond.
The new state permit process is not as intensive as that used by California, which was the country’s first state to create rules for testing and deploying autonomous vehicles. But the permit means that Texas regulators can intervene to prevent a business from operating on its roads if the company is deemed involved in too many security incidents.
Three other companies –Waymo,, ZamxAnd Av Ride – Operate to Austin. Waymo is the only one to offer public journeys in the city, that users can drain the Uber application.
Eckhardt says that she wants Tesla to have lived a longer public map of cartography, test and data sharing before launch in Austin. “We need good local and state communication, to make sure that we really fulfill our public security obligations,” she said.
