MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., May 12, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Kodiak Robotics, Inc., a leading self-driving trucking company, today became the first company to publicly demonstrate its “fallback” system, which can autonomously pull a self-driving truck over to the side of the road in the event of a truck or system failure.
