The public? Must have opened things up, then, because it was only available to a select few recently (generally Tesla-positive influencers and vloggers).
The existing commercial robotaxi fleet? You mean the "10-20" vehicles in Austin? Sorry, Tesla announced that they'd increased the fleet size by 50%, so "15-30".
> This is being done in the engineering sample vehicles because they are testing performance on highways now - something Waymo and other competitors aren't even attempting to test.

You're out of date. Waymo has been testing and is able to operate on California highways for the last year and a half (https://www.theverge.com/2024/3/2/24088454/waymo-california-...).
