Fully self driving too! Snerk.
So glad I have Tesla shorts lol
At first, i was staunchly against this as i am onboard the Fuck Tesla and Musk train.
However, electric auto-taxis would be great in addition to mass transport.
Fuck Musk, btw
Where I live, there is a bus driver shortage leading to cancelled buses and limited service. Cyber cab, van or bus that runs the route outside of peak hours to give 24/7 service and monitor routes would be a big help. And it's a fixed route so the system can be optimized for those.
They would, but don’t expect it from Tesla. Other companies are making actual, real progress while Musk continues kicking the can down the road with bold promises and no timelines.

electric robotaxis can help reduce co2 emissions and decrease the total amount of cars. This is good.
In theory.
I also hope this can be a solution for people who need a car to live while reducing the number of individual cars, but I'm afraid Tesla is not really interested in reducing the number of cars.
Robotaxis are NOT going to reduce the number of cars that are filling up the streets and parking spaces.
They are replacing some of the traditional traffic while they carry passengers, and then they add more traffic when going home (or searching for a parking lot, or doing idle circles) after the ride, and when coming for the next passenger.
When I say people who need a car, I mean people outside of cities where it is not reasonable to have public transportation. In this case, having a system of automatic electric cars that can be used by different people for their daily commute could reduce the number of cars outside of cities if the service is good enough.
Inside cities, public transportation is the solution.
