"A driverless car in autonomous mode copes even better when driving on the highway than a category E driver with three years of experience: it keeps the lane, changes venezuela whatsapp resource lanes, slows down, lets others pass, overtakes," said Konstantin Gurov. "In terms of the ratio of energy consumption and productivity, no computer can beat the human brain. And it is impossible to hang so much equipment on a driverless car that it can make decisions the same way as a person in non-standard situations."
He listed three factors after which driverless vehicles can be released onto crowded roads. First, it is necessary to obtain irrefutable evidence that in non-standard situations a car will cope much better than a person and the probability of a traffic accident will be less than with a driver. Second, the regulatory framework must be finalized - it is not yet prescribed who should be considered guilty in an accident with a driverless car. Third, it is necessary to prepare society so that people are not afraid of driverless cars on the road.
"From the point of view of technological maturity, a truck in closed laboratory conditions, on a test track, drives absolutely normally. It is no different from taxis, drones and robots that deliver food. The problem is that if a 40-ton truck at a speed of 90 km/h in traffic on a federal highway, it can be very dangerous," said Konstantin Gurov.
Other experts believe that it is very premature to raise the question that driverless vehicles will become the norm and leave drivers without work.
"The prospect may be much further than one might assume. This depends not only on the development of technologies that have not yet solved all the complex problems of the operation of driverless cars in real conditions, in the flow of cars on public roads. Decisive factors will be economics, legislation, the development of 5G and 6G communication networks, but especially the state of the road infrastructure: the quality of roads, machine-readable markings at any time of year, lighting. The underdeveloped road infrastructure in Russia may predetermine the situation that driverless cars will remain a local phenomenon for a long time," a representative of the press service of the taxi ordering service "Maxim" told ComNews.
He also noted that each incident involving a drone exacerbates the problems associated with people's trust in unmanned technologies.
At the same time, on June 14, 2023, PJSC KAMAZ launched the first unmanned truck on the Moscow-St. Petersburg highway (federal highway M-11 "Neva"). In May 2024, aprojectgovernment decree on expanding the experiment on cargo transportation by unmanned cargo transport. It proposes to expand the geography of the experimental legal regime to the federal public road M-12 "Vostok" and the Central Ring Road A-113.
The company "Yandex unmanned technologies" is considering the option of testing the technology on the M-11 "Neva" and M-12 "Vostok" highways within the framework of the experimental legal regime. Its unmanned vehicles are already present in the urban environment - Sirius, Innopolis, Moscow.
Wildberries also uses unmanned vehicles for cargo transportation in its logistics center.
According to an estimate provided by Konstantin Gurov, approximately 400 thousand trucks are actively used daily in Russia, with 600 thousand drivers involved in the process.
