Tesla's recent launch of its Robotaxi service in Austin has come under investigation by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) after videos surfaced showing self-driving cars exceeding speed limits and veering into wrong lanes. While Tesla promoted the rollout with influencer endorsements, those promotions backfired as they showcased the vehicle's potential malfunctions, highlighting persistent concerns over the efficacy and safety of their autonomous driving technology. Given Tesla CEO Elon Musk's ambitious plans for a future dominated by driverless vehicles, the scrutiny from regulatory bodies raises questions about the company's ability to deliver on its promises.
The Robotaxi's debut featured 10 cars with safety drivers, but videos surfaced revealing traffic law violations, prompting scrutiny from the NHTSA regarding Tesla's self-driving capabilities.
Despite the initial hype, videos showed Tesla's Robotaxis glitching or speeding, raising concerns about the reliability of its self-driving technology amid close NHTSA scrutiny.
