Tesla robotaxi reports 15th NHTSA crash; no mileage disclosure

Tesla reported one more robotaxi crash to NHTSA in its February submission, bringing the total to 15 since the Austin program began in June 2025. The January crash involved a Model Y hitting a fixed object at 9 mph with the system engaged, and no injuries were reported. Tesla does not regularly disclose robotaxi mileage, so the trend in crashes per mile cannot be assessed.
