Tesla to introduce car without steering wheel within 2 years

Unlike most other companies working on self-driving systems, Tesla is taking the approach of delivering vehicles to customers that they can use right now as regular cars but with the hardware required to eventually achieve full self-driving with future software updates.
It is completely different from companies like Waymo or Uber who are working on vehicles solely built for autonomous ride-sharing services.
GM also claims that it is bringing an autonomous Bolt EV without a steering wheel to production by the end of the year.
At the Autonomy Day, Tesla unveiled its own design for a vehicle without a steering wheel:
The CEO said that they would eventually also remove the steering wheel for their fleet of Robotaxis. He said that Tesla would literally simply unbolt the steering wheel and put a cap on the dash cutout where the steering column is currently located.
“I think there will be a transition period where people are able to take over from the robotaxi but once regulators are comfortable with us not having a steering wheel, we will just delete that.”
He said that for cars that are already on the fleet, Tesla would offer retrofits to owners.

So if it goes haywire, there is no option to override it?
That’s scary.

I wonder what kind of pothole detection sensor will be on these. Also, how are these going to prevent running over Brayleigh and Layken when they’re on Range ave @ interstate collecting money for travel softball.

I've been driving 26 years at this point and don't think I'd ever feel comfortable with this. You younger guys can have the autopilot

While mom sits in her $75k SUV playing on her $700 phone. Think of the kids! They need money for their completely unnecessary activity, just not mom and dad's money.

I want a car with a bed in the back so I can take a nap until I get where I'm going.
