I knew a few people in this space about a year ago and I pretty much hear: "realistically, 15 years out at the earliest."
Driverless. Technology of the future. Always was. Always will be.
But seriously, how much would it take to mostly handle driving trucks on limited access highways between exurb mega-warehouses? By "mostly," I mean, be able to handle 98% of all situations, and be able to flag attention from a remote control human supervisor for the other 2%. I suspect we're pretty close.
