I rode in a Level 2+ automated truck outfitted by Plusdrive at the Freightwaves "Future of Freight Festival" at the Chattanooga Convention center.

Full automation takeover with the driver present to touch the wheel. Tech scaled to not change lanes on its own, but suggested a few lane changes. Stops and starts on its own in stop and go traffic.

Super impressive on the interstate. Very impressive demo.

This is Plus's truck with purported Level 4 technology at work, but due to regulatory controls, they don't enable certain features like automatic lane change, and they do require driver contact with the truck.
