Public trust in self-driving vehicles is critical, but without federal standards, companies in the sector get to decide what to share about the safety of their technology, with varying levels of transparency.

Elon Musk promised the June Austin Robotaxi would operate "unsupervised." New disclosures suggest that won't happen, but what will?

Tesla's June robotaxi debut in Austin is a go, but it will be invite only, a Morgan Stanley analyst, who visited the company's Palo Alto office, said.

With any new technology or use case, there are bound to be legal cases to test and define the bounds of the law. Currently, a person in the driver’s seat of a Level 2-3 vehicle would find themselves in legal liability for a crash. However, the passenger of a Level 4 vehicle likely would not.

Tesla Chief Executive Elon Musk on Tuesday said a test of robotaxis would begin on schedule in Austin, Texas by the end of June. Musk in a CNBC interview said that he expected Austin to launch with about 10 cars and that robotaxi deployment would scale up to about a thousand within a few months.

Elon Musk said Tesla's robotaxis will avoid certain intersections in Austin after being asked about a BI report that showed FSD running a red light.

Tesla plans to launch a limited robotaxi service in Austin, Texas, next month, and last week Morgan Stanley analyst Adam Jonas, a longtime Tesla bull, met with the EV giant and received details on the plans for its autonomy push.
