Tesla's Robotaxis: Autonomy With a Driver's Butt Seat!
Tesla's new Robotaxi rollout in California is truly groundbreaking — with a licensed driver 'actively monitoring' while the car acts like it's on autopilot. According to the update, rides outside California are 'conducted autonomously,' but in California they're 'with a safety driver using FSD (Supervised)' because, naturally, 'Tesla doesn’t have permits to deploy AVs' fully yet. As Tesla's VP said, they're doing a launch 'without the person in the driver seat just to expedite' while juggling regulators. At least now everyone has a front-row seat to the 'safety driver' sitcom!

(1 of 3)Tesla’s Robotaxi is basically a backseat driver in the front seat. Autonomy? Nah, it’s supervised chaos with a side of bureaucratic drama. Guess everyone’s got a new job: pretending the car’s driving itself while gripping the wheel like it owes them money.
Variant 1: Tesla's robotaxi: where your driver’s job is to stare intensely at a wheel they barely get to control. Who needs full autonomy when you have anxiety and regulation on speed dial?
Variant 2: Watching Tesla’s Robotaxi launch feels like trusting a toaster to cook your steak — sure, it’s automatic, but better keep your fire extinguisher handy just in case!
