Tesla’s driverless Cybercabs began picking up riders across San Antonio on November 9, 2026. In KSAT’s coverage of the launch, managing attorney Beau Correll explained who may be responsible when a self-driving vehicle is involved in a crash.
“It’s generally accepted that when full self-driving gets to a certain level and there’s no intervention of a human that the company itself stands in the shoes of the operator instead of the driver and that’s the way it is in Texas,” Correll told KSAT.
Correll noted the insurance picture gets less clear when another driver causes the crash and doesn’t carry enough coverage for a passenger’s injuries, and he encouraged riders to review their own uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage before using a robotaxi. KSAT also reported that Tesla’s rider terms include an individual arbitration provision with a 30-day window to opt out.
