Breaker, Breaker, one-nine, this is the Ghost Jockey, you copy?

***It also has to know when to alert the driver to take control;***
Then what good is this automated equipment if you still have to have someone take over in bad situations.

For rolling over the vast flatland coupled with real time monitoring to start,it could work. I would be leary of heavy populated and very high traffic areas.

Are these trucks programmed to pull in front of you right as you are passing them on a steep hill, then slow down to 45 mph- finally allowing you to pass 2 miles later on the way down the hill? If not, I’ll miss that.

If it has to have a minder then just why? Humans can read the road much quicker than ‘putors. If you don't want a driver then put it on a train.

It can anticipate black ice on the far side of a bridge? It can see the 2X4 in the lane ahead and the cop with a customer on the emergency lane? It can anticipate the action of the moose or elk on the side of the road?

How long before some fun-loving pranksters repaint the white lines right off a bridge?

Ain’t driving with me on I-80.

Uh, No.

There’s still a driver there, responsible for safe operation. Right now it’s just an advanced “cruise control” which makes the truck stay in the lane and maintain safe following distance.

Driverless IED. Stupid. Someone fills one of these and programs it to be automatically delivered. Real smart. /s

What does the driver record in his logbook when the truck is doing the driving?
