Nevada approved Tesla's request to operate robotaxis in Las Vegas but limited the fleet to only 10 vehicles within a geofenced area on the Las Vegas Strip, imposing speed limits and forbidding airport pickups. Tesla must seek additional approval to increase the fleet, while rivals like Zoox and Waymo operate larger fleets under less restrictive conditions.
