New details reported by TechCrunch show Tesla will not allow children under 13 to ride in its Cybercab autonomous vehicle, even when accompanied by a parent, a stricter rule than currently applies to its Model Y robotaxis.
Federal officials are examining whether Tesla's autonomous Cybercab meets vehicle safety standards shortly after its deployment, according to a report by Ars Technica.
A TechCrunch Mobility roundup indicates Tesla's Cybercab has begun operating on public roads but has encountered an unspecified issue, the outlet reported.
Less than a week after its Austin launch, some riders say the driverless Cybercab includes a touchscreen-based joystick despite lacking a steering wheel or pedals.
