Tesla has registered 42 autonomous vehicles for its Robotaxi service in Texas, significantly fewer than Waymo's 577 authorized robotaxis. This registration follows a new Texas law requiring self-certification that vehicles meet level 4 autonomy standards, meaning they can operate without a human driver in normal conditions. Tesla began its Robotaxi service in Texas in June 2025 but has not disclosed how it certified its vehicles as level 4, while Waymo has a much larger and established fleet. Tesla's growth in driverless services faces strong competition as it seeks to expand beyond Texas into other states like Arizona, Nevada, and Florida.
