Won't switching to high speed trains put a lot of truck drivers out of work?

(Next Olympics I want wide track bobsledding. Four sleds on the track at once - like Ben Hur on ice.)

Nope, but it'll get a LOT of passengers off the highways so the trucks will have an easier time of it. Cargo is typically NOT carried by high-speed train; passengers are - think "TGV" in France.
