The US government is investigating whether the Cybercab meets vehicle safety standards.
The company says no children under 13 can ride -- even with a parent. That's more restrictive than the Model Y SUVs it's using as robotaxis.
The investigation was launched just a few hours after Tesla put the first production Cybercabs on the road in Austin.
The company published a form on its website Thursday soliciting info from people who are interested in "Cybercab fleet vehicle purchasing."
The company is about to formally launch the gold two-seater, with no steering wheel or pedals -- a move that could change Tesla forever.
The company may finally be ready to try to deliver on Elon Musk's years-long promise of launching a robotaxi network of its own.
