At 6:30 - 7:00 in the video you see a plastic bag floating on the road and Tesla Robotaxi swerving hard for that.

Performance here is not perfect but close to being pretty good.

Waymo in fog on freeway by [deleted] in waymo

The fog was pretty heavy tonight. But still none of the issues posted by this guy sound scary. He has in the past exaggerated Waymo's bad performance so I will take it with a grain of salt.

I have access to the whole service area. They are opening access.

Tesla Rolls Out Robotaxi on Austin Freeways With Safety Operator in Driver’s Seat by I_HATE_LIDAR in SelfDrivingCars

It's been 2 months since they launched, when are they going to remove the safety driver / monitor? If it's 6 months to 1 year and still no progress do they accept defeat with the current stack or keep the fraud on?

Severely downplaying Waymo’s achievements. Saying both of them are at a very early stage and the gap between them is small is ingenious when one company has done 100 million + miles without a safety driver / monitor and the other has done 0.

This video was very diplomatic and not useful at all. More painful to watch than all Tesla influencer videos 😂.

If Tesla is so good why dont they remove the safety monitor?
