Self-driving trucking developer Kodiak Robotics has teamed up with US Xpress, one of the USA’s largest carrier fleets, with the intent of operating a Level 4 autonomous freight service between Dallas-Fort Worth, Texas, and Atlanta, Georgia, using Kodiak’s self-driving trucks. The company will become the first truckload partner in Kodiak’s Partner Deployment Program and the partnership also marks the launch of the first commercial autonomous trucking lane to the East Coast.
