    You don't need 2 trucks and all that autonomous crap if the US finally joined the real world and allowed Super B's and twin 53's lol.

    Does the "Safety Engineer" sitting behind the Steering Wheel have to have a CDL? He is not technically "driving" the truck.

    Remember when companies were falling all over each other to order Nikola Hydrogen fuel cell hybrid tractors? The CEO of Nikola was just forced to resign after he admitted all the videos of the 2018 prototype were faked by rolling the truck down a hill because it had no engine.
    The stock price went from $10 a share to $93 back down to $20 in a few months.

    Nikola Founder Trevor Milton Resigns as Executive Chairman Amid Fraud Allegations

    Look for the same sort of outcome with this bullxxxt company.

    And you can lose your job for a flat tire on one inspection, a marker light on another.
