NEWS: Tesla has just released an updated version (v1.4) of its Model Y Robotaxi First Responder Interaction Plan.
Here are the key changes from the previous version:
• A dedicated First Responder Support line has replaced the general Roadside Assistance number.
• Tesla added a new detail clarifying that hazard lights do not flash when the Robotaxi is charging.
• The document now explicitly states that while waiting for a new ride booking, the Model Y Robotaxi roams its area of operation.
• The “Moving the Vehicle” section was significantly expanded, distinguishing between pushing the vehicle in minimal risk scenarios and driving it when operable.
• The response team handling collisions has been renamed from the “Field Response Team” to the “Rapid Response Team.”
• The document consistently replaced generic references to “Robotaxi” with “Model Y Robotaxi” throughout the entire guide.
• The hood was added to the list of items that Tesla can remotely unlock for first responders.
