NHTSA Probes Tesla's Driverless Cybercab | Jamaica News

NHTSA is diving into Tesla’s radical new Cybercab—no steering wheel, pedals, or mirrors—to see if it truly meets U.S. safety standards, especially since Tesla certified it themselves. As these robotaxis roll out in Austin, the agency questions how much Tesla’s self-certification relies on skipping traditional safety rules for a fully autonomous vehicle. While Tesla touts the Cybercab as accessible transportation for all, including those with disabilities, state laws still require human supervisors in most self-driving tests—something this car aims to eliminate. With over 300 robotaxis already on Texas roads and 45 Cybercabs in service, Tesla’s push is accelerating just as rivals like Waymo expand their own autonomous fleets nationwide.
