Driverless trucks will not work especially in Canada. Road markings disappear in many provinces with harsh weather, eco road paint, and snow covered surfaces, and white out conditions.

[@beasport505]

Yah all these CEOs white collars are too stupid to realize "real life" scenarios

[@danharold3087]

I am not saying it will happen. Road marking are not needed if the system already has that information. Where a truck is expected to drive in the snow they could have the roads mapped with GPS so the trucks don't even need to see the lane markings. Do expect a driverless truck to move when human drivers can't? It is possible just depends on the implementation. The real danger is not the truck but the other traffic on the road. We need to get to where all vehicles on the road have V2V. In part a radio beacon to let other vehicles know where you are and how fast your going. Where you will be turning or changing lanes. Sounds like pie in the sky but in time it will come.

Imagine a big rig with no driver , it gets a flat tyre , you get road detours due to all manner of reasons , you get obstructions on the road from animals to fallen trees , break downs , bridge and road axle weight restrictions, and then there's just dealing with other crazy drivers on the road , Sometimes freight shifts or needs securing on route .

In the UK they are also looking into a new tax system to "make it fair" for everyone a pay by mile tax system! So no longer on the emissions but milage that's me unemployed and even more broke. They want us off the road here. My 57mpg 2009 insignia I have to pay the "ulez" / "clean air zone" charges but I had a hire van which did 20mpg and because it's made after 2016 I don't have to pay it.........which is why im looking for a new vehicle because I get punished by £12 / $15 a day for driving an older car.....which is counter productive because thats either less time I work now so don't earn as much, or pay the extra regressive tax.

Easy answer: Congress keeps raising the wages on starting salaries. If you have been working for years to get to $15.00 an hour and now a person with zero experience is starting at $15.00 an hour, you want to go to $30.00 an hour, so it goes up the line. As of Jul 3, 2024, the average hourly pay for the Auto Industry jobs category in Detroit is $25.95 an hour with several years of experience so now they want $60.- $80.00 an hour. So by automating the jobs they don't have to play the game of the government telling businesses how to run their companies. They always say there are 3 branches of government but we the people are the 4th and most important and can make it without them. We make the money and without us, they have none.

Well,there’s no reason for the older workers to get a raise, the toilers in the vineyard thing. This attitude is common but really, the older workers are responsible for not advocating for better wages in the past. If government doesn’t tell corporations, which are legal constructs designed to shield the rich from liability, what to do, you can enjoy the good old days. You remember? No safety, thalidomide, asbestos everywhere, no pensions ( my old factory was bought out and,lo and behold, the new company declared bankruptcy! Yay, they don’t have to pay the pensions that were part of the sacred contract. But that nasty old DEEP STATE, said in a deep,ominous, had forced the poor oppressed corporations to pay into the meddlesome pension trust fund. Sadly, we are receiving our pensions. Oh that mean government interference.

Congress has no control over wages other than the minimum wage which is still $7.25 an hour. Last wage hike was July of 2009. Many states m/cities though have raised their minimum wages. Just helping you keep your story straight. 😊

Cameras driving in the direction of the sun can experience glare and white outs which prevent computer systems in some vehicles from knowing where other people or vehicles or objects are potentially ,causing them to crash into things they do not see at high speed. That potentially includes sunlight glaring off the side of large ve-hicles. Self driving vehicles that can not see and do not know where they are have a bigger chance of crashing. As in if self driving vehicle stops seeing 👀 what is in front of it then it might crash into stopped traffic at 60 miles an hour. Some cameras can see through extreme glare. It does not mean a self driving ve-hicle has that type of camera. In a batle between a self driving vehicle at 60 miles an hour and a concrete barrier or wall it can not see because of bright sunlight or other bright light it is most likely that the brick or concrete wall is going to win.

What Rockefeller did when he struck oil was give away lanterns to railroad workers, because they're gonna need oil for it, they're gonna buy oil from him. Same with Meta (not a big Zuck fan). That's why the Quest 3 is way cheaper than the competition because it's subsidized by Meta. But customers will eventually have to spend money on Meta apps so it's all good.

Of course there are the issues of actually driving and safety. But truck driving isn't just stepping on the gas pedal and brakes. Truck drivers have all sorts of other responsibilities like securing loads, putting on chains for snow, unloading fuel into gas station tanks, ... Those tasks are going to be hard to automate.

[@danm2144]

Driverless in Canada? what about the lines on the road being covered in snow? when the sensors on the truck are covered in ice? how about when 2 drivers in cars manage to get the truck stopped by stopping in front and next to the truck and rob it? vandalize it? what about when an accident happens involving one of these trucks? who can I sue? the truck owner? the software developer? the hardware developer? will they get some sort of indemnity agreement (can't be sued) from the government, bought and paid for by lobbyists?

A lot of cars have such bad rear visibility now because they were relying on the cameras. My sedan is so high in the back that you can barely see where you're going if you look behind you.

[@grazz7865]

@@GeneralChangFromDanang I drove trucks and buses my whole life. There is no rear view! You had your left and right mirrors and that’s really all you need. I don’t understand why people are more focused on what’s behind them than what’s in front of them. The video rear view mirror is the worst. That light in your face the whole time is annoying. All this technology teaches people NOT to look.

For a short time my State changed it's weight and trailer combination laws that allowed double 40 foot trailers, but only between stops off the Interstate. My Co. tried it however there was not enough benefit to continue and the trailers had to be carefully loaded so they would not become unstable during a maneuver. I see the same with rigs. Safety wise I don't see how they could work off the big roads.

Only positive thing about autonomous vehicles if you get to old to drive, you can still maintain some sort of independence and self efficiency.

[@greenmedic88]

Truck drivers will become truck engineers. Basic on the road maintenance/repairs, refueling, inspections, diagnostics, etc. More mechanic than driver. Yep; takes more skill than to just operate the truck, but the market will need a lot more mechanics keeping these fleets operating, and a lot of those mechanics will be riding shotgun with the self-driving trucks, that just drive. If they want cargo transported great distances with minimal concern for traffic; build more train lines/trains. Those can also be self driving.
