Anyone driving any kind of Tesla is a traitor to humanity. If people start spitting on you in public you know why.

On the one hand, this means they may be serious about actually trying to make this work. On the other hand, it'll almost certainly require a subscription to use the robotaxi in fully autonomous mode because that'll be an ongoing liability for Tesla.

I know. The Onion used to be such a great news source. What a shame they’ve fallen in to this fake news trap.
