Tesla's Robotaxi program has officially launched in Austin, Texas, offering select influencers and content creators the chance to experience the cars equipped with Full Self-Driving technology. Each vehicle includes a safety monitor and a follow-up car to enhance safety during rides. Although the experience was largely successful, with positive navigation reports, it wasn’t without issues, such as delays and driving errors. The trial phase is currently contained to a section of Austin, with future expansions planned for major Californian cities.
