What do you mean you did not see it? It is a Bus and you just crashed into it!

Tesla has reported its Robotaxi fleet in Austin, TX has been involved in 14 incidents (crashes) since its launch in June 2025.

Looking at the #'s, the fleet likely reached around 800,000 miles by mid-January 2026 - that works out to one crash every 57,000 miles. The average American driver experiences a minor collision every 229,000 miles and a major collision every 699,000 miles. Er go, Robotaxi's are crashing at 4X for a regular human driver.

NOTE: All of Tesla's "incident" reports are fully redacted and flagged as “confidential business information.” Tesla remains the only ADS operator to systematically hide crash details from the public through NHTSA’s confidentiality provisions. https://electrek.co/2026/02/17/tesla-robotaxi-adds-5-more-crashes-austin-month-4x-worse-than-humans/ #Tesla #RoboTaxi #FDS #AutonomousVehicles #Safety #NHTSA #CarCrashes #AutomatedDriving

Just posted a new #SSRN paper: “Second Physics and the Accountability Framework for Automated Driving Systems (ADS)” – a technical note on legal responsibility in automated driving.

This week's @motoringpodcast News Show is now out.

Alan doesn't let me get too cross with the Follow Ups, but trust me I was on the Ledge of Fury™️ for both.

We get bamboozled by Merc's naming conventions in New New Car News.

And the Lunchtime Watch is ace.

My demeaning voice - 31 October 2023 - Motoring Podcast

The show starts with two pieces of Follow Up. The first being how Cruise first had their license for the robotaxi service revoked in San Fransisco to the company “pausing” their whole fleet. Second Follow Up is that the Mercedes Drive Pilot manual has been released and has some contradictions in it.
