Plus (formerly Plus.ai), a global provider of self-driving truck
technology, announced today that the company has been elected to
the Board of Directors of PAVE, an industry coalition with the
mission to educate policymakers and the public about the potential
of automated vehicles. Wiley Deck, Vice President of Government
Affairs and Public Policy at Plus, will represent the company on
the Board. As the only Level 4 autonomous trucking technology
company that has already started delivering a commercial autonomous
driving solution to customers, Plus will work with industry leaders
to deepen the understanding of the benefits that automated trucks
can offer today and in the future, including increased safety,
efficiency, sustainability, and driver comfort.
2021 has been a milestone year for Plus. The company started
customer delivery of its commercial driver-in autonomous driving
solution, PlusDrive, in February. PlusDrive is a repackaged and
governed application of the company’s Level 4 autonomous driving
technology, designed specifically to make long-haul trucking safer,
more efficient, more comfortable, and better for the environment.
PlusDrive can be added to existing trucks or integrated directly
onto new trucks built at the factory.
“The safe introduction of automated trucks requires favorable
policies and public support. Plus is excited to collaborate with
industry partners through organizations like PAVE to share
information with policymakers and the public about autonomous
trucks. Faster, safer, and more efficient long-haul trucking is
good for our economy and our daily lives,” said Wiley Deck, Vice
President of Government Affairs and Public Policy at Plus.
“We are pleased to welcome a leading autonomous trucking
technology company Plus to the PAVE Board. As a member-driven
organization, PAVE relies on our Board’s leadership to drive our
mission and programming. With automated trucking emerging as a key
segment of autonomous vehicles, Plus’s involvement and
collaboration will boost our efforts to help people understand the
transformative potential of autonomous vehicles,” said PAVE
Executive Director Tara Andringa.
