Agreed. A blue collar guy in his 40s driving a truck...that’s gonna be rough.
They have time to figure out what’s next, but what IS next?
I heard the driver less trucks will still need to have someone in them but that might have changed. Heard that a year ago but I think there are cabs out there without drivers or someone up front.
My gut tells me the problem for driverless vehicles will be navigating around the ones with drivers. I expect the long haul truckers will still be in the cab, but more as monitors. They will probably start by permitting continuous driving after around 9 pm all the way to around 5 am. With less traffic, the automation should be able to work smoothly. I don’t think current regulations permit more than 5 hours continuous and 8 hours in a day.
