What it takes to scale autonomous trucking beyond the 1st driverless truck

Torc Robotics aims to put driverless trucks on public roads by the end of the year. Nick Elder, the company’s vice president of commercialization, joins “Shift” host Molly Boigon to discuss the plan. Elder said that the goal is important, but it is not the finish line. Next, Torc must prepare the technology for commercial scale. Michael Martinez, an Automotive News reporter who covers Ford and the UAW, also joins Boigon to discuss how automakers approach drivers’ data privacy.
