      Self driving cars have been threatened for years. Trucks are practically here (on private roads currently). The desire is strong.

        Long haul freight truck yes. There are a few test convoys driving through Europe’s highways, with only a human driver in the first one. Trucks in smaller roads, or cities, are still quite a bit in the future.

          Agreed. But the last mile driver will disappear eventually, particularly when hubs are designed for AI automation in mind.

      Self driving lorries have been in development stage for over 5 years. I don’t count teslas into that cause on overwhelming average cars are driven not as work. Truck, busse and train drivers were under attack for a long time.
