Research on the Management of Autonomous Delivery Vehicles at Home and Abroad

As a new form of intelligent and connected vehicles, autonomous delivery vehicles are a massive increase in the era of autonomous driving. Autonomous delivery vehicles, as a new type of convenient and safe “contactless delivery” tool, have attracted widespread attention from all walks of life amid the fickleness of the new crown epidemic. The large-scale application of autonomous delivery vehicles requires corresponding supporting laws, regulations, and standards. With the release of the innovative autonomous distribution management policies in several pilot areas of intelligent and connected vehicles, such as the Beijing High-level Autonomous Driving Demonstration Area, and the continuous investment of many companies in product technology and applications, China’s autonomous distribution industry may welcome the rapid landing, and a new logistics ecology based on autonomous driving technology will become possible. This technology-driven industrial transformation will eventually bring users a unique distribution experience. Through analyzing the management system and policies of autonomous delivery vehicles at home and abroad, this article aims to provide a reference for promoting the landing of autonomous delivery vehicles in China.
