Pittsburgh, March 26, 2025 — Aurora Innovation (NASDAQ: AUR), a leader in autonomous trucking, has released a comprehensive Driverless Safety Report outlining the company’s safety strategy, risk management, cybersecurity practices, and more. This release comes as Aurora prepares to launch its commercial self-driving freight operations in Texas.

The report reflects Aurora’s strong commitment to safety transparency, detailing exactly when, where, how, and why the Aurora Driver operates safely. It also explains how safety is embedded across the organization, drawing on best practices from other high-risk industries.

“At Aurora, our philosophy isn’t just safety first – it’s safety always,” said Nat Beuse, Aurora’s Chief Safety Officer. “We’ve provided a behind-the-scenes look into how our safety systems work as we prepare for a historic milestone — deploying fully driverless trucks on public roads.”

Ahead of its launch on the Dallas–Houston corridor, Aurora is finalizing its Safety Case, a structured demonstration that its autonomous trucks are safe for public roads. Aurora was the first to introduce a Safety Case Framework for both trucks and passenger vehicles — a model that is now widely followed across the AV industry.

The detailed report, originally published in January, explains how Aurora closes its safety case and prepares for safe driverless operations.
