It's important to remember that this NHTSA ADS report includes Tesla's supervised and unsupervised robotaxis in Austin. We don't know how many times the safety monitors/drivers in the supervised robotaxis in Austin intervened to prevent an incident since NHTSA doesn't require reporting intervention data. Tesla also doesn't share the miles split between supervised/unsupervised robotaxis from Austin. The California DMV requires reporting of interventions but Tesla still hasn't applied for a driverless testing permit there.
The latest NHTSA report has just come in. Tesla reported one new incident this month. It occurred earlier in April, when the Robotaxi was stopped and rear-ended by a truck. Tesla is therefore not at fault. The previous report already listed two other incidents in March in which the Robotaxi was also stationary and rear-ended. As a result, there have been zero incidents since the beginning of February 2026 in which the Robotaxi was at fault. Let that sink in! Zero incidents where FSD was at fault for the last four months (June’s data will be released next month). I’ve attached a simplified view of the NHTSA data if you’d like more details. @elonmusk @aelluswamy Amazing job! You guys are cooking!

To all the people who wanted to buy the cybercab with a steering wheel and pedals because they thought it would be fun to drive, hope you enjoy driving a slightly more powerful Honda Civic hybrid 😅 Front wheel drive, 219hp, 3113 lbs 🥱 Perfect for a boring robotaxi though!

"I think that I could be in the back seat on most drives now." Dec 2025 If this were true, we'd see a much larger active robotaxi fleet by now, especially in Austin where they been operating for a year now. Even the most reasonable Tesla fans can be tricked by FSD.

I don't make predictions very often. I try to be a critical thinker in a productive way most days. FSD v14.x whatever they get to is just really really really good on the 2026 Model Y, Cybertruck too. I think that I could be in the back seat on most drives now. @Tesla_AI 🙇‍♂️🙇‍♂️🙇‍♂️

Hell yeah! Fill my roads with cheap robotaxis and manual cars! Robotaxi for boring commutes and manual cars for everything else fun.

Just more distractions from a lack of actual meaningful progress..
Here’s what happens when you hit an FSD streak milestone on @Tesla V14.3.4

One can only dream! Tesla sales would skyrocket! New CEO would do the most sense thing. Start making new models again to generate revenue. Robotaxi and Optimus can become side projects again.

Keep in mind he didn't put any performance qualifiers. So a 10 mile point to point drive could require 5 interventions. Same goes for eyes off, initially it could be as limited as the Mercedes level 3 and then improve over time.
Lots of people say Rivian's autonomy timeline is impossible. RJ just put real dates on it at the Masters of Scale podcast, Point-to-Point this year and eyes off next year. I am still bullish, I've included my take in the article. riviantrackr.com/news/rivian…

Lots of steering wheels.. It looks like Tesla is continuing to build up their test fleet. I estimated 2-3k previously. I feel like people don't talk about this enough. When you build an entirely new vehicle without steering wheels and pedals that's not sold to the public, you will need maintain your own large fleet of test cars and a team to test every new FSD update. I don't expect Cybercab's real cost advantage to kick in until the robotaxi fleet is in the thousands at least. And at this point, I don't expect any material financial impact even next year 2027, at least not the positive kind. It's a long road ahead. Furthermore, how large of a Cybercab fleet are you willing to build up knowing that AI4 is coming next year? 🤔
Houston Robotaxi Hub Update (6/13) Steering wheels still appear to be in place. I counted ~31 Cybercabs today, up from ~20 just a few weeks ago.

Anyone with a cybertruck brave enough to start summon while it's parked next to a pillar/pole?

Technically, there are 10 more days left in spring but I think we can safely assume there's zero chance that "Tesla robotaxis will be all over Europe" by then. 😅

Trial robotaxis next spring… well good luck. I believe Tesla Robotaxis will be all over Europe by then.

Robotaxi launched June 22nd 2025 so ~2 weeks to go until the 1 year anniversary. Nevertheless, my prediction before the launch was 100-200 robotaxis by the end of 2025 and 1,000-2,000 by the end of 2026. I guess I'm just a Tesla optimist 😅

We’re now more than 1 year since $TSLA launched Robotaxis. Who would’ve thought that 1 year after launch, there’d only be a handful of them deployed!? I honestly thought they would’ve surpassed Waymo by now. Robotaxis are still less than 1% of Waymo’s size. Crazy!

"$600 is incoming within the next few weeks." - Jan 22nd Mr Mike, I took your advice. Not about the stock but about saving this post for later 😅
This is your friendly reminder that the prices seen on $TSLA today are about to be forever gone… Whales have been aggressively loading tens of millions into $TSLA $700 December calls all week. $600 is incoming within the next few weeks. Save this post for later…

Every month there's a new fantasy..😅
I am not into SpaceX Tesla conspiracy theories … but yes, it is obvious that scaling Robotaxi BEFORE SoaceX IPO and steal the attention would have been kind of dumb. When we look at the signs - Cybercab parking lots filling across many cities , especially Dallas and Houston , in addition to hundreds of ModelY with Robotaxi markings plus hiring all over the place … I think June will have some surprises, potentially starting this weekend.

Simple ultrasonic or radar sensors could easily detect these objects in close proximity but Tesla is too cool for such things, just like rain sensors.
n=3 but this is starting to paint a picture in all of the pillar/pole collisions we've seen the following is always true: 1. empty context / start of drive (aka fsd doesn't have memory of objects/pillars/pole entering a blindspot) 2. pillar/pole is in a camera blindspot in all of them it appears that the objects do exit blindspots, at least momentarily, within seconds of starting, so in theory this a solvable problem without additional memory/compaction methods for these specific cases surely, though, there are cases though where objects will not exit a blind spot and better memory mechanisms are going to be needed as long as blindspots exist in the meantime, i'm happy to use smart summon when not parked around any pillars

If this video was any less than 2 hours, I would have been disappointed. 😅 Thanks for the deep dive and all the nerdy details, @itskyleconner ! The Rivian R2 is turning out to be the best all-around SUV for under $60k, EV or ICE!

Not testing on public roads.

We’re expanding our footprint to continue building the world’s most trusted driver. 🚀 We’ve acquired a 5,500-acre proving ground in Wittmann, AZ. This investment gives our teams dedicated urban and freeway tracks to validate software in a controlled setting before deploying on public roads.

Apple's refusal to make any enhancements to the notification center in iOS is beyond frustrating. Notification management has sucked for years and they won't even touch it.

Ugh, this brought back memories of my 2019 Model 3. It would brake late too in these types of situations but that was in 2021. Can't believe FSD v12 is still doing it.
Below is official crash footage of my dad being rear-ended while using FSD v12.6.4 on his HW3 Model 3 earlier this year. The telemetry overlay was created using the new crash visualization tools in @CamCutApp v1.1. Unfortunately, this experience completely destroyed his trust in FSD, and it’s going to be difficult to earn that trust back. In this case, traffic ahead was slowing down normally. There was no sudden stop or hard braking. For reasons that aren’t entirely clear, FSD delayed braking until Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) intervened and forced a much more aggressive stop. (Watch the autopilot status switch to “Aborting”) The driver behind failed to react in time and rear-ended my dad’s car. One of my biggest concerns with FSD v12 on HW3 is that its reaction timing could occasionally be inconsistent, making these situations difficult to supervise. Everything can appear normal until the system reacts a second or two too late. FSD v14 on AI4 has been a significant improvement, which is one of the main reasons I upgraded seven months ago. But i think it’s important not to forget that there are many people out there that are still using this outdated software and should be warned about its shortcomings. To my knowledge, CamCut is the first commercially available tool that can combine Tesla crash footage, telemetry logs, and official crash report data into a synchronized visualization of the entire event. The crash analysis tools are currently in beta. If you have Tesla crash footage you’d be willing to share to help improve the feature, I’d greatly appreciate it. Feel free to DM me.

Same!
I'm honestly pumped for a software update that's mostly just combing through the fine details, performance improvements, etc. Liquid Glass and a lot of recent design elements have felt sloppy. The fact that "same corner radius in every Mac app" had to be an announced feature is wild. Very ready for a cleaner, more efficient MacOS, iOS, etc.
