I actually like ELDs but the truth is that this was rushed into the industry before it was ready for widespread use. Automation in several forms is the way of the future, I don't agree with every application of this but it is going to be. In a few years the truck stops will be filled with a bunch of kids with nothing to do but ride in a truck while a few of us old dogs are telling stories about driving the truck and paper logs and some crazy thing they've never heard of called an atlas, like a GPS on paper kind of. We're on our way to being a dying breed, Maybe we're closer to that than I think.

They can't even keep planes from falling out of the sky when a sensor fails, and they don't have to deal with any traffic in close proximity around them...and they've been working on THAT for 50 or so years. Fully automated trucks are still a long way off...unlikely to happen in my lifetime.
