Tesla Publishes Robotaxi Safety Report and Names Four Planned Cities

Tesla published a Robotaxi Safety Report covering its driverless service through October 18, 2026. It also named Las Vegas, Phoenix, Jacksonville and San Antonio as upcoming Robotaxi markets. These are planned expansions, not confirmed public launches, and Tesla has not announced dates for them.

What the safety figures measure

Tesla reports approximately 3.1 million driverless miles in the report's covered period. The company says its results include reportable collisions during autonomous operation without an onboard safety monitor, including when a remote operator assists or takes control.

Tesla reports no injuries in collisions where its Robotaxi made first contact, under its published definition. This does not mean there were no collisions or no injury allegations. Tesla's report describes exclusions and specific cases, and comparisons to human-driver crash rates are sensitive to differences in reporting, routes and operating conditions.

Why it matters

This gives readers a more concrete basis for tracking Robotaxi operations and safety than unverified social-media fleet estimates. The four planned cities also offer clear expansion milestones to monitor.

What to watch next

Watch for announced opening dates, local permits, operating areas, independently reported incidents and future updates to Tesla's methodology.
