Tesla Robotaxis have been involved in at least two crashes in Austin, Texas, while remotely operated at low speeds, according to newly unredacted data submitted to the NHTSA. Both incidents involved a safety monitor in the vehicle and no passengers, with crashes caused by teleoperators maneuvering the cars, such as hitting a fence and a construction barricade. These disclosures come as Tesla cautiously expands its autonomous ride-hailing network, with CEO Elon Musk emphasizing safety as the primary limitation. The detailed crash reports may explain Tesla's slow rollout compared to competitors like Waymo, despite operating at a smaller scale.
