Do you guys worry about com like tusimple making driverless trucks?

back when I used cruise control my truck went from 55-60 to 25 before I could do anything about it because of some newspaper flying down 76 right outside of philly.. wouldn’t let me accelerate out of the braking isn’t that nice.

 

It is every freight broker's and dispatcher's wet dream to have driverless trucks.

 

If you run out, remember what shirt tails were designed for.

 

A pepper are ya

 

I don't know....which meaning?

 

Prepper i meant

 

Darn spell check

 

Can't wait until the autonomous vehicles software is remotely hacked and hijinks of all kinds ensue

 

lol....sometimes 'pepper' means meth head.
Yeah, prepper with beer, wine, song.

 

No.
Reason.
Trains are on rails. They go forward and reverse only on a known path with little that changes. Trains would be the simplest to automate. But they don't.
Why?
Simple, no technology is absolute. If a glitch happens there must be someone at the controls to take over.
Now a truck is on a road with little Bobby & Peggy Sue and there is no way the politicians and lawyers will allow that without someone behind the controls just in case.
