With driverless truck technology being tested on public roads, challenging questions arise. Are we safer sharing the road with these robot behemoths? Will they lower shipping costs? Well-funded tech startups are applying AI, new functional safety concepts, and innovative business models to launch this transformation of road freight. Thought leaders from pioneering companies will cast their visions and debate pro's and con's with industry experts to provide a grounded look at what's to come.
