A Tesla Robotaxi had its first-ever collision over the weekend involving a minor impact with a parked car, resulting in minor or non-existent damage.
The collision occurred during Tesla's Robotaxi program, with the incident reported by Tesla influencer Chris, who shared a video of the impact on social media.
The Robotaxi, part of the vision-only program, had difficulty navigating a parking lot and ended up lightly tapping a parked Toyota Camry, causing the vehicle to stop and activate its hazard lights.
The collision highlights potential challenges with Tesla's vision-only system and raises concerns about the safety and effectiveness of the Robotaxi program compared to competitors like Waymo.
