Part 4/7:
An interesting element of the launch included the presence of a safety monitor in every Robo taxi. Their role sparked common questions regarding whether they were actively controlling the vehicle. Herbert clarified that their function was primarily observational, intended more as a precaution against potential accidents or interruptions during the high-stakes launch day.
With the visibility that the event attracted, there was a palpable sense of alarm regarding potential sabotage by anti-Tesla activists, further justifying the safety measures put in place.
