Tesla has received approval from the Arizona Department of Transportation to operate a paid ride-hailing service in the state, expanding its supervised robotaxi program from Texas and California. The permit requires human safety drivers in all vehicles, marking a step toward broader deployment but not yet full autonomy. This development allows testing in metro Phoenix while competitors like Waymo operate more advanced driverless services.
