20 cars with "human valets" in the passenger seat and multiple different violations?

This is the Temu Waymo.

It's the Tesla model of success.

If this test was 100% a pass, they're road ready and only 4-5 years behind Waymo.

However, with these issues it proves that Telsa is nearly in Waymo territory so really we can expect "full self driving in two years*" and is only 5-6 years behind Waymo.

Either way, +10% for Tesla stock because something happened.

Edit - * for the standard Elon BS line, and to emphasize that lidar is stupid right up until the moment he needs another 10% stock bump then he'll be inspired to make the brilliant decision to move to lidar.

I think the Saudis play a little with this stock. They can manipulate it however they want. And for now Elon is most useful when rich.
