UPS Has Been Delivering Cargo in Self-Driving Trucks for Months

  No where does the article say they are delivering packages, but it appears rather they are shipping trailers between distribution centers on interstate highways.

    With a "safety driver" at the wheel, like everyone else.

  “At this point, the TuSimple trucks carrying packages for UPS still have an engineer and a safety driver riding along” Seems like they’re as far along in the process as all the other companies

    Exactly. Of course no one noticed - the trucks still have a driver in them.

  >At this point, the TuSimple trucks carrying packages for UPS still have an engineer and a safety driver riding along. When UPS reaches Level 4, it won’t need anyone behind the wheel. Yeah, when that happens, that'll be news...

  My Subaru (not Tesla) can manage itself on the highway pretty well with me, a safety driver, behind the wheel checking in on it periodically.
