BREAKING: I have just contacted and confirmed directly with the California Public Utilities Commission that @Tesla has been granted the first in a series of approvals from California to operate Robtoaxis.

Tesla's application was for a transportation charter-party carrier permit, a license that is typically associated with chauffeur-operated services.

What Does Tesla's TCP Permit Allow?
• In November 2024, Tesla applied for a TCP permit to operate vehicles that they own using drivers that are Tesla employees.
• According to Tesla’s application, Tesla will initially utilize the TCP permit to transport Tesla employees, on a prearranged basis and in Tesla-owned vehicles.
• Tesla plans to transition to using the permit to transport members of the public on a pre-arranged basis. Tesla will notify the CPUC when it transitions to transporting members of the public.

What Does Tesla's TCP Permit Not Allow?
• Tesla has not applied for a Transportation Network Company (TNC) permit. A TNC authority is often informally referred to as “ridesharing” or “ridehailing.” TNCs provide prearranged transportation services for compensation using an online-enabled application or platform (such as smart phone apps) to connect drivers using their personal vehicles with passengers (e.g., Uber, Lyft).
• Tesla’s application does not seek participation in CPUC’s Autonomous Vehicle (AV) Passenger Programs in either a drivered or driverless capacity, and a TCP permit alone does not authorize them to provide rides in AVs. Prior to applying to the CPUC’s AV Passenger Service programs, a carrier must also possess the relevant AV authority from the California Department of Motor Vehicles; Tesla does not possess authority from the DMV to offer any driverless rides for testing or deployment purposes.

Starship departs for Mars at the end of next year, carrying Optimus.

If those landings go well, then human landings may start as soon as 2029, although 2031 is more likely.

In the US, an average of 37 deaths per year are related to heatstroke in kids.

That’s why we developed Cabin Radar – a 4D imaging sensor that requires little power & can detect respiration through organic non-metallic occlusions (such as car seats).

Cabin Radar first row sensing comes standard on New Model Y & Model 3 + @Cybertruck & will be enabled on 2022+ Model Y via OTA update.

In addition, Child Presence Detection will soon be rolled out to all vehicles (also via OTA update)
