It's not a blown-up moving walkway, and there's no conveyor mechanism.

The driverless vehicles automatically move between lanes and form convoys on the fly, with the kind of robotic coordination that would be impossible for human drivers (but which also has us asking, "why not just use a train?")\u003C/p>\n\n\u003Cp>Once they reach their destination, which is a logistics base of some sort, automatic forklifts will load and unload the cargo.

Recent restrictions on overtime hours, however, means that there will be a 14 percent deficit in delivery capacity, according to government estimates.\u003C/p>\n\n\u003Cp>These same estimates indicated that a third of Japan's cargo could be left undelivered by the end of the decade, per \u003Cem>The New York Times\u003C/em>, causing $70 billion in economic losses in 2030 alone. Since it's unglamorous and often grueling work, it's unlikely that companies can make up for the shortfall by hiring more drivers.\u003C/p>\n\n\u003Cp>As such, Japan is investing serious money into the project, with one estimate sitting at over $24 billion, per \u003Cem>The Guardian\u003C/em>, citing Japanese newpaper \u003Cem>Yomiuri Shimbun\u003C/em>.
