TLDR: Since Tesla’s June 2025 robotaxi launch, Tesla has built a 39-vehicle unsupervised fleet, while Waymo has a newly disclosed 3,791-vehicle U.S. fleet. So Tesla appears to be on pace to catch up with Waymo’s autonomous fleet size by the year 2111.

LOL!

What year Tesla? Sounds like my 2023 (HW3). The follow closely thing seems to have gotten better in the last couple updates tho.

    2024, I didn't ask the dealership guy what hardware powered it (because I don't care), I reviewed it here actually: https://fuelarc.com/cars/review-2024-tesla-model-3-long-range-rwd/

    I don't see how it could have gotten much better with a vision-based solution, but who knows? Personally, it wasn't in the same ballpark as acceptable quality for my use-case. I don't expect incremental software patches will fix that to my satisfaction.

    Again, I'm weird, never been in an accident and I drive a ton, I'm particular about my car not crashing because I used to be on an ambulance crew and treating car-crash victims really takes the shine off your apple.
