Texas is the global example for Autonomous Trucking commercialization! Earlier this month Bot Auto representatives Robert Brown and Bart Teeter were honored to join representatives from the Texas Department of Transportation in welcoming a delegation of researchers and officials from Japan. The group came to Texas specifically to see real-world examples of autonomous trucking in action and how the regulations in Texas have made us the epicenter for the global Autonomous Trucking industry. "What stood out to us on that day most was how the conversation itself reflected the warmth and depth of the autonomous driving community in the state of Texas—committed to road safety, open dialogue, and practical collaboration." said Yoko Suzuoki, Associate Principal at SC-Abeam Automotive Consulting. "We believe that Texas’s experience offers valuable lessons not only for Japan, but for the global community."

Bot Auto is driving innovation at #MOVEAmerica2025! Our own Paul Lam, CFA, FRSA is part of a panel bringing attendees up to speed on the progress of Autonomous activity happening on American roads today. There is plenty of both action and challenge. “What really matters most to the commercialization of autonomous trucks is being able to plug and play into the existing ecosystem in a way that makes the cost per mile competitive,” Lam says. The ability to measure progress from a business perspective through Cost Per Mile in a tangible way is key. Teamed with continuous validation of the systems and technology will equal safer roads and lower shipping cost.

We are driving innovation and proud to be bringing our scrappy attitude into the world of autonomy. Thank you to Grayson Brulte and Chuck Price for the conversation and seeing that maybe less really is more! Bot Auto is moving fast with purpose. https://lnkd.in/ewxruJJD
