SACRAMENTO, Calif. – A giant truck with no driver in the cab recently drove itself 80 miles from Tucson to Phoenix, Arizona.

TuSimple Holdings, a public corporation headquartered in San Diego, has announced it conducted an 80-mile driverless truck run along highways and streets, including Interstate 10, from Tucson to a location in the Phoenix area.
