Self-driving freight trucks have been given the go ahead to drive on Nevada’s roads.
The vehicles, developed by German manufacturer Daimler AG, have clocked up 10,000 miles in order to get the key to the western state’s roads — and a full license. “This is not a testing licence,” said chief executive Wolfgang Bernhard at a press conference on 5 May. “We believe that these vehicles and systems are ready.” Daimler then proved its point by driving its new Freightliner Inspiration vehicles across the Hoover Dam.
