Here’s a typical mock drop off by a test car. Strange part - the driver is doing it. FSD is off.

Pretty unremarkable, but why is this significant?
The speed limit on this street is 35 miles an hour. I’ve never seen a Tesla robotaxi test vehicle do this.

The mappers are back out. The drivers either don’t know what the sensors do, or they’re assholes.
Or both could be true

Another reminder that the Tesla Robo taxi test is really a battle between marketing and physics

Robo taxi stuck at a train track.
Luckily, they all have human drivers so it took off as soon as the camera came out

I see them all the time. Here’s one almost running down a pedestrian. My neighborhood has gotten used to avoiding them

Most of the announcements are just spin - there are no cars without drivers. Mappers are running constantly in the operating area

The mappers only run in conjunction with the test cars. They are mapping the operating area

The holiday weekend is over, so the Tesla test vehicles are back in force. same random driving patterns, same human drivers steering the cars.

It’s great to see the Tesla Robotaxi mappers venturing out into new neighborhoods, but it begs the question - if FSD was working as advertised, why are mappers required?
