Video: Tesla Driverless Robotaxi Runs Over Traffic Barriers After Getting Confused
A video posted Monday on Reddit shows a Tesla driverless robotaxi driving through a row of flexible traffic barriers after taking a wrong turn into a barricaded sidewalk extension. The passenger warned the car, and the vehicle paused for about a minute before proceeding through the plastic barriers. The incident raises questions about the robotaxi's decision-making; Tesla has remote operators, but it is unclear if they were involved.
