","text":"The actual number of years to come to fruition (aside from a few choice safe areas like the desert) they’re looking at a minimum of 50 years.  Each and every one of the automated trucks have been systematically taken off the road for “more research” due to “catastrophic events” involving dead humans \nHmmmmm.  Who could have forseen that? LOL","replyToPid":43773}

","text":"Never heard of one autonomous truck killing a human.  A couple cars, yes- and they’re still on the road.\n\nAnd a little research shows autonomous trucks are running right now in the US.   Yes, in limited venues, but they’re running.  It won’t take all that long for them to spread ","replyToPid":56871}
