- Elon Musk’s company celebrated its first day officially ferrying passengers through the Texan capital of Austin. While Tesla attempted to minimize risks in part by inviting out-of-town influencers from the Tesla community, there were some issues. “Obviously we’re on the wrong side of the double yellow lines here,” said one rider.
For many Tesla investors, Sunday’s launch of its robotaxi pilot in Texas represented a historic day. After years of bold promises, Elon Musk’s company finally began ferrying passengers on their own without a human directly behind the wheel.
