New National Survey: Public Comfort with Autonomous Vehicles Is Rising

Plus Autonomous Vehicles Update September 26, 2026

Public comfort with autonomous vehicles is rising, and exposure matters. New survey data shows growing comfort with AVs across the U.S., especially in places where autonomous vehicles are already operating or testing. For autonomous trucking, building trust means continuing to share data, engage communities, and deploy responsibly.

Why this matters for talent

Plus sharing survey data showing rising public comfort with autonomous vehicles is a trust-building post rather than a direct hiring signal, but public trust metrics like this are increasingly part of how autonomous trucking companies justify expansion to regulators and investors, which indirectly supports continued hiring. Plus is not currently tracked on the board's company count under that name, so candidates should check the company's own careers page.
