Companies still must overcome technical hurdles before we see the big robotic rigs on the nation’s highways in big numbers. “Even though technically it may be feasible, we do not think we are going to see autonomous trucks in the next two to three years,” said Sudarsan Thattai, chief information officer at Lineage Logistics.
