## Resource

Volvo is set to launch fully driverless trucks in North Texas next year, aiming to solve the chronic trucker shortage while boosting safety and efficiency—thanks to Aurora’s proven tech that’s logged nearly 440,000 miles without fault. With backup systems and sensors that outperform human drivers, these autonomous rigs could soon hit the road with no human behind the wheel, especially in high-volume states like Texas where regulations are ripe for innovation.
