THIS IS WHY YOU WILL SEE MORE OIL EXECUTIVES AND COMPANIES DOING EVERYTHING THEY CAN TO PAD THEIR POCKETS AND FLEECE THE GENERAL PUBLIC!!! MAY THEY BURN IN THE HELL WITH THEIR OIL! 👹🔥👹🔥👹🔥👹🔥👹⛽🛢️

You tell me how an automated truck or car can handle black ice and I might start to think its a possibility..

Autonomous trucks work in ideal conditions. Throw in bad weather and human motorist, it won't be long before the first fatality is announced.⚰️ There are so many variables in driving that they can't possibly all be programed into the truck.🙄

What is the point ‘going to town’ on designing the interior to make it an enjoyable place to be, according to its chief engineer, if ultimately it will be driverless and/or operated like a drone remotely?

I keep telling everyone electric vehicles are useless. Hydrogen is so quick to refuel just 5min. You can travel where you want. All current fuel stations are already there for conversion. It's going to be a no brainer.

Hydrogen is a much better option than electric less pollution from production of batteries and hydrogen is here now, albeit in the SE, 1500 refuelling stations exist already.

Maybe on main roads to big warehouses, not so sure about delivering to local shops or maybe out on rural roads.

It wont work coz of too much hijackings, drivers are still needed .

Abolish jobs. We will all just live off shirt buttons.

Electric trains are the future, not trucks.

Automatron stole the future.
