Nevada approves Tesla Robotaxi testing in state

[ModelAZ]

NEWS: Tesla has officially received approval from the Nevada DMV to start testing autonomous vehicles (robotaxis) on public roads.

Today, I confirmed directly with the Nevada DMV that's application to obtain a Testing Registry certification was approved by the DMV Office of Business Licensing team yesterday. Autonomous plates and the registry certificate were also sent back out to Tesla yesterday.

Next, to officially start offering robotaxi rides to the public in Nevada, Tesla will need to complete the “Self-Certification for Operations” step to roll out a service similar to the one they currently operate in Austin, Texas, where there is no one in the driver’s seat. This approval shouldn't be difficult to get.

I've added more info about this Self-Certification for Operations” step in the thread below.
