London's mayor is pushing deployment caps on robotaxis following UK approval of driverless vehicles, citing congestion and job losses. If adopted, the limits would require operators to negotiate local restrictions rather than expand freely, creating a template for other cities to constrain autonomous vehicle rollout. The move signals that regulatory approval at the national level does not guarantee unrestricted urban deployment.
