In its first 60 hours of operation, the Tesla Robotaxi platform encountered a situation where the in-car safety monitor had to intervene. Initially, the vehicle displayed human-like driving behavior when it missed a turn but did not prompt intervention. However, during a ride with investor Dave Lee, the car faced confusion due to a UPS truck parallel parking, leading the monitor to press the 'Stop in Lane' button. This incident highlights the challenges and unpredictable scenarios faced by autonomous vehicles in real-world environments.
