How Kodiak uses AI and probabilistic risk assessment to measure autonomous trucking safety

June 17, 2026 by Sam Francis

Rapid AI advances now enable engineers to develop autonomous driving technology faster than ever, but the true frontier of autonomous driving is the ability to couple those advances with demonstrable and rigorous safety.

Increasingly, depth and rigor is achieved not through the biggest budgets nor the largest fleets, but by distilling the most precise insights from real-world testing and simulation that assure autonomous systems can handle rare and unusual scenarios, the kind that may only occur once in a lifetime of driving.

Autonomous truck maker Kodiak has met this challenge by adopting two tools, including one we created with the help of AI, that accelerate the pace, depth and precision of our safety engineering. They go beyond traditional approaches and deliver clear, compelling evidence of the Kodiak Driver’s safety.

5 Common Truck Tire Problems and How to Fix Them

June 16, 2026 by Sam Francis

Ignoring changes in your ride quality doesn’t just shorten the lifespan of your tread; it actively compromises your safety on the highway and can lead to sudden, catastrophic blowouts.

Understanding the common truck tire problems and how to fix them is essential for any owner who relies on their rig to operate flawlessly under pressure.

By spotting the warning signs early, you can fix the underlying issues before they turn into an expensive roadside emergency. [Read more…] about 5 Common Truck Tire Problems and How to Fix Them

Interview: Parallel Systems CEO Matt Soule on building ‘the world’s first autonomous freight rail system’

June 15, 2026 by Sam Francis

Autonomous trucks have dominated discussion around the future of freight transportation for much of the past decade, attracting billions of dollars in investment and extensive media attention. Yet another mode of transport – freight rail – is quietly undergoing its own transformation.

Matt Soule, founder and CEO of Parallel Systems, believes autonomous rail could become one of the most significant developments in logistics.

A former SpaceX engineer who spent 13 years helping develop advanced aerospace systems, Soule founded the Los Angeles-based company with the goal of reimagining rail freight using autonomous, battery-electric technology.

Autonomous Trucking and Liability: Who’s Responsible When a Self-Driving Truck Crashes?

June 7, 2026 by Sam Francis

As autonomous trucking pilots continue expanding across highway corridors in Texas, Arizona, and California, the legal industry still hasn’t settled a fundamental question that becomes more urgent with every new deployment: when a self-driving truck causes a crash, who’s actually liable?

Can AI Predict Car Accidents Before They Occur?

June 7, 2026 by Sam Francis

Artificial intelligence has moved from research labs into everyday driving faster than most people realize. Modern vehicles already use AI to detect lane drift, judge following distance, and apply emergency braking before a driver can react.

The next question researchers are asking is bigger: can AI actually predict when and where a crash is about to happen, not just respond to one already in motion? [Read more…] about Can AI Predict Car Accidents Before They Occur?

Why Semi-Truck Accident Claims Bring Unique Legal Hurdles

May 21, 2026 by Sam Francis

The Bronx sits at the center of some of New York City’s busiest transportation routes, with major highways carrying a constant flow of commercial traffic through densely populated neighborhoods every day.

Delivery trucks, freight carriers, and long-haul semi-trucks move through the borough at all hours, sharing crowded roads with commuters, buses, cyclists, and pedestrians.

When a collision involving a large commercial truck occurs, the aftermath is often far more serious than a standard car accident, leaving victims with severe injuries, mounting medical costs, and uncertainty about how to move forward.

Uber, Pony.ai, and Verne partner to launch ‘Europe’s first commercial robotaxi service’

March 26, 2026 by Sam Francis

Verne, Pony AI, a large-scale developer of autonomous driving technology, and Uber Technologies have announced a strategic partnership to launch what the companies say is “the first commercial robotaxi service in Europe”, beginning in Zagreb soon, with initial deployment work already under way, including public-road validation.

The three companies plan to collaborate on the deployment of a commercial robotaxi service, combining Pony.ai’s autonomous driving system, Uber’s global mobility platform, and Verne’s service ecosystem and operational framework.

Under this model, Pony.ai will provide its autonomous driving solution; Verne will act as fleet owner and service operator; and Uber will integrate the service into its global ride-hailing network, complementing Verne’s own customer-facing platform.
