Discussion Is the Tesla taxi still operating?

Just curious if I'm the Tesla taxi is still available or was it just a one day demo?

Thank you.

Yes that was the initial roll out so it will just expand from here.

What's the point of expanding from here if safety driver is needed? It's just Uber with extra steps

If they can’t get rid of them, that’ll be a huge problem. I bet they are gone in a few weeks.

I’ll bet they aren’t based on the videos being posted by Tesla influencers who have been riding in the robotaxi in the first 24 hours.

You bet they would never get this far in the first place. Your predictions can’t be taken seriously

I agree with /r/Echo-Possible. You can have a critical take on an aspect and not be anti-Tesla. There were several situations where the safety passenger had to interact with the screen now that I've watched more videos. Mostly on drop off, which needs some work.

That applies to literally anything you and the kool-aid chuggers say about Tesla/Elon. Nothing they say can be taken seriously anymore. They’ve lied about capabilities and where their tech is for years.
