"Tesla Robotaxi mules were spotted in a new state for the first time as the company plans to expand the ride-sharing service to new areas of the United States in the coming months. Tesla is offering Robotaxi rides in Austin already, where nobody is present in the driver's seat except for on freeway routes. In California, Tesla refers to its platform as a ride-hailing suite, and a "Safety Monitor" is present in the driver's seat at all times, but the vehicle operates on Full Self-Driving."
"Over the weekend, Tesla Robotaxi mules were spotted in Enola, Pennsylvania, just about ten minutes from downtown Harrisburg: Enola is situated to the northwest of Harrisburg, Pennsylvania's State Capitol. Interestingly, you'd expect Tesla to be testing these types of vehicles in other, more populated areas; Philadelphia is about two hours East, and Pittsburgh is about three hours west. State College is about an hour North of Enola."
Tesla operates Robotaxi rides in Austin with no one in the driver's seat except on freeway routes. In California, a Safety Monitor sits in the driver's seat at all times while the vehicle operates on Full Self-Driving. The company plans to offer rides soon in Nevada, Arizona, and Florida. A pair of Robotaxi mules equipped with LiDAR for ground-truth validation was recently spotted in Enola, Pennsylvania, roughly ten minutes from downtown Harrisburg. Enola lies northwest of the state capitol and is closer to legislators than major metropolitan areas, suggesting a possible motive to influence regional regulatory review.
