    Seriously??!?!?!

    "However, the Internet of transportation things is still in its infancy. McLaughlin expects fleet command centers to be able to track driver health and performance through heart-rate monitors, wearable devices and retinal monitors."

    WTF?!?! It all started with the driver-facing cams.......Brave New World and 1984 (google for the youngsters), here we come......

    Can you say big brother.....
    ELDs and inward facing cameras are just the start. Wait until there are breath and urine samplers and a dead man switch to hit every 30 seconds.
    And to think....commercial pilots aren't even regulated as much as truckers....Kinda crazy.
