I am proud to announce that I have successfully completed the world’s first USA coast to coast fully autonomous drive!
I left the Tesla Diner in Los Angeles 2 days & 20 hours ago, and now have ended in Myrtle Beach, SC (2,732.4 miles)
This was accomplished with Tesla FSD V14.2 with absolutely 0 disengagements of any kind even for all parking including at Tesla Superchargers.

.@Uber is targeting 700 robotaxis on its platform by year-end. More than 500 of those robotaxis are @Waymo today and they are going away in the future.
This week on Autonomy Markets, @gbrulte and @WaltLightShed analyze Uber's fleet targets, @Tesla's shift from Cybertruck to Cybercab, and the race to scale autonomy globally.

Here is Orlando.
Just about 70% coverage of the land area and is pretty close to the population as well.
Tampa may be delayed, but well see, hopefully tomrrow.
It’s going to be hard for Tesla to have a Halo car (Roadster) if the rest of their lineup in the future has no steering wheel

The road goes on forever....
I just had a fantastic experience this morning getting a demo of the @wayve_ai Driver in downtown San Francisco, CA

Here is Miami!
The accuracy of each city has been getting better. Waymo is very soon.
61% of the Land Area, 67% of the population. Railroads seem to be a major contributor to the middle section and most of the residents.

Waymo's Orlando depot is over 130,000 square feet, the size of a @Costco, with hundreds of vehicles and no permanent charging infrastructure in sight.
@gbrulte spent more than four and a half hours riding the entire new @Waymo Orlando service area in a mixed fleet of Ojai and Jaguar I-PACE vehicles, from a rooftop drop-off at @UniversalORL to the curb at @SeaWorld.
But two things are still missing, @MCO Airport and @WaltDisneyWorld. Which comes first for Waymo in Orlando, the airport or Disney World?
This is the Field Report.
It’s always a great day to ride a @Waymo
Great pick up experience just now at Las Vegas Strip hotel Fontainebleau
I need to follow through on my 59k Cybertruck order & then add these mods so I can do some FSD snow testing
HW3 Model 3 turned into a Van 🤯
In other news it’s sad I was about to call the car AI3, then I thought about calling it SI3 & that would be definitely wrong, so resulted back to the OG name

This was the only strange behavior we observed with the Ojai during our ride
On the return trip, parking wasn’t the greatest as you can see by the parking lines, however the main issue was the doors got stuck on the driver side.
They did not close automatically. It stayed like this for roughly 3-4 min then it resolved itself and drove off
Luckily we were in an empty parking lot, however had this happened on a busy street or parking lot, it would have caused a serious traffic jam. Definitely an issue for @Waymo to look into
