Elon Musk’s Tesla is preparing to launch a taxi service in California that could eventually shuttle paying passengers in autonomous vehicles around the state, according to emails obtained by The Washington Post.

I wonder what would happen to his investment if simply no one used his product - that is of course if the neoliberals had any sort of conviction and substance
Though I had once considered it in the before times, I will now never purchase a Tesla or use this imaginary taxi service. I’ve been happy with my Kia EV, and would rather invest in a Rivian R3X.
Would YOU feel safe getting into an autonomous vehicle programmed by one of Musk's companies? Musk cares little for people and runs roughshod over laws and safety. Tesla's cars are more deadly than any other car company's.
Oh really? Like the hyperloop, or whatever it was called? Why TF would you report this as fact? And shouldn't the headline be about his criminal role in this administration, massive conflicts of interest, or that he's probably lying again to steer funding away from public transport?
-- the hyperloop (now just a lonely tunnel in Las Vegas)
--the Mars colony that was supposed to begin in 2010
--Tesla, which is struggling to sell its Swasticars, and
--Twitter, which has 1/3 the users it had before Elmo renamed and Nazified it.
Voters should have a say in this, particularly since all those federal experts looking into autonomous vehicle crashes were fired by Trump. It doesn't sound safe to me.
Half-baked article, much like a Musk tech-brat. Nothing about the permitting process. Gender-free spokesbot allowed to give no details of opaque governmental function. Guess we won't know anything till we suddenly see one of those ugly little deformed tuna cans bearing down on us.
When donates bigly, one expects a payback. Pretty sure that 47's head of DOT, etc would rubber stamp approvals for robot-taxi operations as requested. Interesting, since FSD can't even navigate out of my community. Faux brick sidewalks seem like barriers. Had to ease it forward three times.
It already exists, it's called Waymo, works as advertised and the company didn't create the Cybertruck or finance a neo-Nazi takeover for a mendacious edgelord.
Last time I saw a Tesla FSD vehicle it got stuck in the parking lot. Perhaps they may use them as cheap urban rental apartments for drunk people too far from home?
President FElon Musk is aware of the global Tesla "Swasticar" controversy and is now offering a $1,999.99 rebadging kit, allowing owners to rebrand their vehicles to any brand of their choice. Available for a limited time on Trump's merchandise site.
Great so now you can get the tesla driving you into a semitruck at high speed, over a cliff or into a concrete barricade or bust into flames for free instead of having to pay tens of thousands of dollars for the privilege after and on top of purchasing this fireball waiting to happen. Brilliant🇨🇦🤣
Firestone and other rubber and car companies dismantled streetcar systems in the U.S., including LA's once-extensive Pacific Electric Railway and Los Angeles Railway (LARy). The Great American Streetcar Scandal: car, tire, and oil companies replaced electric streetcars with buses and private cars.
For happier people in cities, better urban planning, environment, etc view... making EVs for 1 to 1 replacement of ICE cars makes little sense... push and incentives should be for electric buses, rail, or such to become so inexpensive, safe, and convenient that cars are not needed in cities.
You know this is 100% bullshit, right? It's a hype release timed to blunt the sharp decline in stock price resulting from people not wanting to support fascism with their vehicle purchase. You get this, right?
So hey CA stop musk and his cars from happening there you can do it..
.boycott anything tesla does i would frigging walk before setting foot in one of his machines
Who the hell would want to put their lives in the hands of this maniac? Already, Teslas are among the worst in terms of safety. I can't imagine anyone signing up for this.
Jeff Bezos is the guy who’d turn your family over to the Gestapo, then take their art collection and proudly display it as his own. Time to bankrupt this pathetically compromised news outlet.

We have had enough bullshit from this guy.
Whatever 'this' is called
-- the hyperloop (now just a lonely tunnel in Las Vegas)
--the Mars colony that was supposed to begin in 2010
--Tesla, which is struggling to sell its Swasticars, and
--Twitter, which has 1/3 the users it had before Elmo renamed and Nazified it.
All hat, no cattle.
Corporate greed is counterproductive for Americans success 🇺🇸

Wouldn't it be fun if there were, say, 10,000 requests per week to be picked up at Tesla dealerships?

The stench of “uncool” is all over the Tesla brand.
May it, and everything else associated with Elon Fucking Musk, swiftly go bankrupt.
