It will end poorly. While auto assisted trucks could be useful, in terms of providing efficiencies and allowing drivers to work a full 14 hours days, I do not believe they can fully replace drivers.

We will always need people like Will, Sonny, BJ McKay pushing rigs.

Over the flatlands and wide open stretches, the automated semi would be great.

Not quite yet.

It is coming.

It is the speed of change that causes the problems.

There is a huge shortage of long distance truck drivers, as well.
