Instead, it uses teleoperation to remotely drive the truck between freight depots and the freeway where a highway-only automated driving system takes over.&amp;quot;&lt;p&gt;Starsky is doing really impressive work, but the trucks aren&amp;#x27;t designed to be 100% autonomous 100% of the time.  I think this is a great solution to the last-mile problem for freight logistics, however.</text></comment>
