JOBhakdi · x · 2026-08-27
Nevada approved robotaxi deployments for both Tesla and Waymo. The key detail lies in the scale: Tesla applied for 5,000 vehicles, while Waymo applied for only 1,000. Nevada would have granted Waymo 5,000, but they didn't ask, making the application size a confession of their production capacity.
