“Land Line” Magazine provides a roundup of state legislative action related to autonomous trucking. The article looks at:
- California, and a renewed legislative effort to ban fully autonomous trucking;
- a Montana bill on truck platooning;
- calls for autonomous truck studies in Virginia and North Dakota;
- a Delaware proposal to preliminarily ban fully autonomous trucks; and
- Texas legislation to set additional rules and standards for AV operation.
According to the article, bills on the topic have died in Arizona, Colorado, Indiana, Kentucky, Maryland, New Mexico, Tennessee and Washington. And in some states where autonomous trucking rules are already on the books, the regulations are now considered outdated.
