Tesla β€˜Robotaxis’ are not crashing because they are not running

16 June 2026 at 14:50

Tesla didn’t report a single at-fault β€œRobotaxi” crash in the latest NHTSA autonomous-vehicle data β€” its only fresh incident was a Model Y getting rear-ended while stopped, clearly the other driver’s fault.

That sounds like good news for Tesla’s safety record. But live fleet data points to the real reason the crashes have dried up: Tesla’s robotaxis are barely running, and the active fleet is shrinking a year into the program.

Baidu Apollo Go wins Level 4 robotaxi approval in Switzerland as AmiGo

16 June 2026 at 13:40

Baidu’s Apollo Go has received a Level 4 autonomous driving permit in Switzerland for AmiGo, a robotaxi service it is running with Swiss Post’s PostBus, putting the Chinese tech giant ahead of Waymo and Tesla in deploying driverless vehicles into European public transport.

The Federal Roads Office (FEDRO) special permit covers an 80 kmΒ² service area across three eastern cantons, and Baidu says the project is on track to become the largest planned automated public transport operation of its kind in Europe.
