While self driving is pretty close on city street and highway, it's not there for loading dock, parking, gas station, trailer transfer, or rural roads. Or snow cover, also. Second, insurance is a problem until the tech is proven as safe or safer than human driver. Proven with a ton of data over years.

Autonomous taxis and gig delivery is a lot closer. Trug is a ways out.
