    I don't like it. I bet they're proud of attacking the blue collar middle class like this. First it was the robotics in the manufacturing plants..., u know what they say the rich get richer and robots are they're friends lol until they're doomed like irobot??

    But seriously This is so lazy and insulting to manhood. What's that "driver" supposed to do, play on flappy bird on his phone??. Two thumbs down from this way. Leave the middle class alone.

    Driver pay will go down,,,, if it's not already low enough now.

    I know this is years on down the road but head shaking none the less.

    Yeah, making a bad situation worse. That's gotta be the most boring job ever to just sit there and do nothing while the truck drives itself. At least the guys that can't wait until their break to watch p0rn will be happy they can sit there and go to town all day.

    So when I get maimed because one of these things glitches out and hits me, do I sue Budweiser or Volvo?

    Both! Especially if Budweiser overloads the trailer so the Volvo brakes go out! ;)

    Gonna be a huge lawsuit especially if the "pilot" was reading a magazine in the sleeper and couldn't take control to prevent an accident.

    I wonder how that truck " babysitter" will deal with things when he gets to the distributor and there's a couple pallets of beer scattered from hell to breakfast ?
