The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has contacted Tesla regarding its Robotaxi platform rollout in Austin, Texas.
The NHTSA sent a letter to Tesla seeking more information on how the company plans to operate the fleet in poor weather conditions.
Tesla has already started operating a supervised version of the Robotaxi platform for employees in Austin and San Francisco.
The NHTSA's request for information is part of a larger investigation into Tesla's Full Self-Driving (FSD) system's performance in reduced roadway visibility conditions.
