EV maker Tesla (TSLA) has officially started offering public Robotaxi rides in Austin with no Safety Monitor inside the vehicle. This is the first time Tesla has removed everyone from the car except the rider. Until now, Robotaxis in Austin always had a Safety Monitor sitting in the front passenger seat to oversee the ride and step in if needed. Although Tesla originally planned to remove these monitors by the end of 2025, the company waited until it felt fully confident in the system.
