Yes I did see the video. It's nothing more than lane keeping and adaptive cruise control. Once I see driverless on city streets, or in construction zones, or on wet roads I'll start to think it's coming.
Heck, if this GM expansion in Flint is any indication, it will be five years just to get the facilities to mass produce the systems needed....

There is approximately 3 million truck drivers , in USA is about 300 million people , you think society will care when cost of goods will go down and it will be less accidents (if all self driving companies right)? Nope.Last edited: Jul 15, 2019

I hope you’re right. I’m tired of driving. Now when the robot cows come along I’ll really be doomed.

Still not scared of driverless trucks.

Autonomous vehicles will one day be on every road in the world. Just not with our existing infrastructure. You can buy all of the hype touted by the designers of this tech as much as you like, but that doesn't mean what they're selling is true. Tesla has developed the most advanced autonomous tech in the world so far, and they're not running driverless cars on the highways. Did you ever stop to think why that is? Do you know how many pending lawsuits there are against Tesla and who will insure an autonomous vehicle and how much it will cost. No you don't, and neither do they.stuckinthemud Thanks this. -
TokyoJoe and SteveScott Thank this.

The first snowflake that hits the camera lens, it will panic brake thinking its vehicle and cause a major pile up, then just sit there. I also want to see the trucks put on their own tire chains, and drive themselves around in a few feet of snow.

It will be 15 to 20 years before they have them....so 30 or 40 years before we do.ZVar and Reverend Falstaff Thank this. -
A lot of megas and fleet owners are investing in Honda, seeing their robot does a lot more than just drive, they can unload too.
