Tesla obtains permit to operate ride-hail service in Arizona

Tesla has obtained a permit to operate a ride-hailing service in Arizona, the state's department of transportation said.

The electric vehicle company applied for a "transportation network company" permit on Nov. 13, and was approved on Monday, ADOT said in an emailed statement. Additional permits will be required before Tesla can operate a robotaxi service in Arizona.

In July, Tesla applied to conduct autonomous vehicle testing and operations in Phoenix, with and without human safety drivers on board. A month earlier, Tesla started a robotaxi pilot in Austin, Texas, with safety valets and remote operators. Tesla also operates a more traditional car service in the San Francisco Bay Area.

Tesla gets permit to run as a transportation network company in Arizona

(Reuters) -Tesla has received a permit to operate ​as a transportation network company ‌in Arizona, a state regulator said on Tuesday,‌ in a step toward expanding the electric vehicle maker's robotaxi service.

The TNC permit does not allow ⁠Tesla to run ‌a driverless ride-hailing service. Tesla, in September,‍ got a permit from the state to test its autonomous vehicles with a safety ​driver.

The permit gives the Elon ‌Musk-led company the ability to operate as a ride-hailing firm in the state after receiving a Vehicle for Hire permit under Arizona regulations.

Tesla, ⁠which applied for the ​permit on November 13,​ met the requirements and was permitted as of November 17 as ‍a TNC,⁠ the state's Department of Transportation said in a statement.
