O: This is useful for residents of cities where robotaxis will operate who want to check the local government's notices directly for restrictions near airports or charging facilities they often visit. X: The Minneapolis ordinance is still under review, and the San Diego resolution and the California bill are not final bans. Before reading the list of local regulations in the original as actual operating bans, you need to distinguish the progress status of each one.
