Episode Details

Texas is cracking down on self-driving cars with new rules kicking in May 28th—companies must now get official approval from the TxDMV to operate commercially, proving their vehicles follow all laws, have safety recording systems, and can safely pull over in emergencies. Though the law passed in September, enforcement is now live, with applications accepted since April. Companies must also detail how emergency crews will handle crashes involving their AVs, and the public can report suspicious activity. The state is serious: unsafe vehicles risk losing their permits. Waymo, Zoox, and Tesla are already testing in Austin under these new standards, marking a major step toward safer, regulated autonomous driving on Texas roads.
