Nevada’s populous hub, home to Las Vegas and the Strip
Several firms have announced expansion plans and new measures that will accelerate commercial robotaxi rollouts. Mobileye has announced a 2027 U.S. launch with an initial 100-vehicle fleet and a five-year target of 17,000; Wayve and Uber are preparing a supervised London service in the coming months; Tesla and Waymo are expanding U.S. coverage; and new indices show Chinese robotaxi players are scaling faster than many expected.
Prosecutors have proceeded with the Tupac Shakur murder case. Duane “Keffe D” Davis faces a murder-with-a-weapon charge for allegedly orchestrating the 1996 Las Vegas drive-by that killed the rapper; Davis has pleaded not guilty. Opening statements are underway as prosecutors expect to call dozens of witnesses over a month-long trial.
Nevada's transportation authority has approved permits for major players to deploy robotaxi services in Clark County, Las Vegas, setting up a competitive battle among Tesla, Waymo, Uber, and Zoox. The approvals include up to thousands of vehicles over the next 12 months, with limits per company and ongoing questions about deployment pace and regulatory oversight.
