    Companies are moving ever so fast on making this happen, just a few weeks ago the "Vera" was introduced by Volvo. Should I be looking for another profession or stick with it in hopes I get a good local tanker job that I've been wanting?

    I'm so lost, help!

    “How many years untill humans are replaced by driverless trucks?“

    Not in any of our lifetimes. Don’t worry about it.

    Happened about 10-15 years ago. They started replacing humans with fat, self centered, effeminate and smelly subhuman steeringwheelholders instead of drivers.

    They'll always need somebody sitting in the truck to blame the accidents on when computers crash, fry, or die. The real trick will be avoiding the pos while you're driving.
