Summary
Texas state records now authorize Tesla to operate 69 unsupervised robotaxis, up from 42 last month.
That approval still falls well short of the scale Elon Musk had promised, and authorization does not mean the vehicles are actually carrying riders.
Robotaxi Tracker counted 32 active unsupervised Tesla robotaxis over the past month and only 23 in the last week, indicating recent on-road activity has declined despite the expansion.
The jump from 42 to 69 also fits Tesla and Musk’s long-running use of joke numerology, echoed by the app’s mock tip suggestions of $0.69 and $4.20.
