Here's why you'll be seeing trucks without anyone behind the wheel on Toronto roads Toronto
The autonomous box trucks will apparently only be travelling on"fixed, repetitive, predictable" routes to send grocery orders from select warehouse locations, and are part of a project that has been many years — and over 150,000 orders, all delivered safely and successfully — in the making, for those who may be apprehensive about the whole thing.
While test runs had a "safety driver" stationed in the passenger's seat of each vehicle to take over if necessary, the trucks will now be operating completely independently in and around the city. Loblaw Companies Ltd. says that the new tech, from California-based AI firm Gatik, allows them to make deliveries more frequently and on more routes than before,"establishing a supply chain that is safer, more sustainable and more resilient."
