Gatik、Kodiak AI 和 Aurora Technologies 等自动驾驶卡车公司正逐步开展无安全员的商业运营。尽管公众对其安全性存有疑虑，但这些公司致力于通过先进技术降低事故率。

无人驾驶卡车利用摄像头、雷达和雷射雷达等感测器进行导航，能比人类司机更快地察觉危险并做出反应。作者亲身体验了 Gatik 在德州进行的无人配送测试，卡车顺畅地完成了行驶，并能主动避让行人。

尽管货运卡车的无人化引发了安全争议，但许多致命卡车事故其实是由其他车辆引起的。随著物理人工智能的发展，无人驾驶货运有望在物流和工业领域实现更广泛的实用化。

Autonomous truck companies such as Gatik, Kodiak AI, and Aurora Technologies are moving into commercial operations without drivers. Although there are safety concerns among the public, these companies aim to reduce accident rates through advanced technology.

Driverless trucks utilize sensors like cameras, radar, and lidar to navigate, allowing them to detect hazards and react faster than human drivers. The author experienced a driverless Gatik delivery truck run in Texas, which drove smoothly and safely slowed down for a pedestrian.

Despite safety controversies surrounding autonomous freight trucks, many fatal truck accidents are actually caused by other motorists. With the advancement of physical AI, driverless shipping is poised to achieve broader practical application in logistics and industrial sectors.
