A robotaxi launch tells you little about the service that follows. I look at where riders can book a trip, who runs the fleet, and when people have to step in. Permits, insurance, labor, and downtime all affect what a ride costs.

I’m KahWee Teng. I write here about those operational details and what they cost. Dated posts follow specific events. The beat map connects the stories, and the archive keeps older articles available, including those outside the site’s current focus.

I use primary sources when possible and link to the evidence behind claims. If you spot an error, reach me through my contact page.
