Tesla’s robotaxi operations in California remain limited to supervised rides with safety drivers, as the company has not applied for the driverless testing or commercial deployment permits required by the DMV and CPUC. Recent regulatory updates, including new DMV enforcement rules effective July 1 that allow direct citations for autonomous violations, add further compliance hurdles just weeks before the June 30 deadline. While Tesla is scaling unsupervised services in Texas cities like Austin and has outlined broader 2026 expansion targets, no comparable milestones have materialized in California amid zero reported autonomous test miles and ongoing permit gaps. Traders view the compressed timeline and approval process as prohibitive, cementing strong consensus around the “no” outcome.
