Tesla said its robotaxis would become available in San Antonio at 5 a.m. local time Monday, adding another Texas city to its service, TechCrunch reported. The company already operates in limited areas of Dallas, Fort Worth and Houston, as well as Miami and Orlando.

Tesla did not specify operating hours, vehicle models or whether San Antonio vehicles would carry human safety monitors. Its Austin service removed safety monitors in January.

Waymo also operates in San Antonio, where it recently resumed service after a five-month pause following incidents involving vehicles entering flooded roadways.
