Tesla has published its first Robotaxi Vehicle Safety Report. It covers January 22 through October 18, 2026, and says the driverless fleet logged 3,112,541 autonomous miles with no injuries caused by a Robotaxi. The figures below are Tesla's own, and the report was first covered on October 21.
What the report says
- Miles: 3.1 million autonomous miles, according to Not a Tesla App. Austin accounts for about 2.12 million, Dallas about 608,000 and Houston about 226,000. Orlando, Tampa and Miami each have under 62,000.
- Conditions: 862,000 miles after dark, 113,000 in rain and 575,000 in rush hour.
- Incidents: Tesla reports no injuries caused by a Robotaxi, no airbag deployments and no pedestrian or cyclist collisions.
- Fleet: The report includes retrofitted Model Y Robotaxis and purpose-built Cybercabs.
The human comparison
Tesla estimates that human drivers over the same miles in its Texas cities would have had about 9.1 injury collisions, 4.1 airbag-deployment collisions and 0.52 pedestrian or cyclist collisions, Drive Tesla Canada reports. These are Tesla's estimates, based on Texas police data.
Tesla also discloses limits. Its injury metric counts only collisions where a Robotaxi made first contact, while the human benchmark counts collisions regardless of which vehicle made contact. The figures leave out miles driven with onboard safety monitors, and the benchmark covers only Tesla's Texas markets. Tesla counts every collision it reports to NHTSA during driverless operation, including ones with remote-operator assistance.
Where Robotaxi runs, and what is next
The report lists six cities in service: Austin, Dallas, Houston, Miami, Orlando and Tampa. It does not include the San Francisco Bay Area, where rules require a safety driver, so rides there are not fully driverless. Tesla lists Las Vegas, Jacksonville, Phoenix and San Antonio as coming soon, with no dates. Not a Tesla App also notes that NHTSA is reviewing claims that Robotaxis sped through active school zones; none of those incidents involved a collision or injury.
What it means for owners
Robotaxi is a separate service from the Full Self-Driving (Supervised) software in customer cars, which still needs an attentive driver. For background, see how FSD Supervised differs from a Robotaxi ride, Robotaxi's current hours, and an earlier look at Austin crash reporting.
