The US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has opened an investigation into Tesla's deployment of Cybercabs without steering wheels or pedals on public roads in Austin, Texas, challenging the compliance with existing federal vehicle safety regulations.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Micromobility.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

The regulatory environment for fully autonomous vehicles without manual controls is shifting sharply in the US. You must brace for scrutiny if you plan to launch similar AVs without traditional driving interfaces.
