Sources
This is the full list of pages behind the facts on Robotaxi Atlas. City, operator and rules pages also cite their own sources next to the text they support.
Updated . By the Robotaxi Atlas desk.
What counts as a primary source
A primary source is the operator itself, a booking partner announcing the service, or a government body, such as a statute, a regulator's bulletin or an NHTSA recall record. These carry the most weight. A law firm's summary or a news article counts as secondary, even when it is accurate.
How to read the list
Sources are grouped by publisher, with the title and publication date where one exists. Items backed only by secondary sources are marked reported on the pages that use them. Links can break or change after they are checked. If you find one that no longer says what is quoted, please send it through report a change.
