## Resource

Tesla’s new driverless Cybercabs hit the streets in Austin just as federal regulators launch a probe into whether they meet safety standards—no steering wheel, mirrors, or pedals. Elon Musk’s high-profile rollout, aimed at revolutionizing urban transit with cheap, autonomous rides, has triggered a 5% stock plunge and renewed scrutiny over Tesla’s self-certification claims. The company already faces multiple investigations into its self-driving software’s safety record, including crashes, red-light violations, and delayed crash reporting—all as the Cybercab integrates into Tesla’s expanding robotaxi network.
