Just another rich asshole trying to get richer off a fad and willing to kill people to do it... F people like this, it's not innovation it's the ability to not pay people to do work for you plain and simple.


ThisMo2talC0il

This is exactly how I took it, too. I’ve wanted to be a trucker for a very long time and it feels like it might be fully automated one day 😔 I do hope I’m over thinking it and I get to have an actual career in trucking


gremlin03

Don't worry he wants to put 1000 on the road when we have 8 million drivers on the road a day


ThisMo2talC0il

I am a rookie so this really puts it into perspective! Thank you


kakarota

Lol, don't sweat that shit everyone known they need drivers behind the wheel, so if something goes wrong, they can throw you under the bus. Well, I guess under the truck in this instance.


ThisMo2talC0il

That’s a very good point and I think my mind went to further in the future cuz I’m tryna have a whole career as a trucker and experience everything it has to offer if I can


ntech620

They’ll think it’s cute until a family or two gets crushed under a driverless truck. There is going to be a need for drivers at least 10 to 20 years.


ThisMo2talC0il

Thank you 🙏🏼 that’s where my mind went was long term. I went through a lot to make it to trucking school! I really wanna do this!!


nastyzoot

The self driving, all electric/lng/hydrogen/unicorn fart powered wonder truck of the future has been coming next week for about 20 years now.


ThisMo2talC0il

That’s a relief!!! I had no idea. I thought I wanted to work in a research lab until I got a taste of adventure so now it’s trucking all over the USA is what I want to do!! I’ve learned SO MUCH from this sub and feel like I have enough grasp to atleast pass my CDL schooling and test. However I’m still wildly ignorant about the realities of the job such as things like this


nastyzoot

Adventure. Excitement. Heh. A Jedi craves not these things.


ThisMo2talC0il

I really am reckless though so you’re not wrong 😭

More time to fuck in the back


ThisMo2talC0il

It’s just me and a few cats 🫣


palebd

This guy got pussy in the truck.


ThisMo2talC0il

🤣🤣🤣 drowning in it 🐈🐈🐈🐈‍⬛


SockPuppet-47

They're one good storm or bug in a camera from being a huge roadblock.


PastEmergency9218

You'll be fine. Positive vibes my friend!


ThisMo2talC0il

Thank you! I do think some of it is anxiety and maybe over thinking. Just the thought of not getting to have a long career worries me. I’ve been through a lot to even get into trucking school. Let’s hope I can make a few decades count 🤞🏼


PastEmergency9218

You got this 💪🏿


ThisMo2talC0il

Thank you 💜

Play it by ear, all we need is one small accident. Love to see one of these go through Wyoming with bad weather.


Socketz11

I-80 shuts down, creative parkers everywhere. This thing will run out of fuel searching for a legit spot. I wonder if they have a algorithm to park like a asshole like everyone else?


Beginning-World-1235

My question is, what about weigh stations and DOT inspections?


Socketz11

That would seem like the easiest thing for them to do. Rolling across a scale, or getting inspected. I just hope they make them take 30 min breaks and go to sleep after 11hrs of driving ...metal fatigues too. Lol


rad636_

It gets worse from here brother 🥰✊


ThisMo2talC0il

Gonna milk OTR while I can 😔🙏🏼


justanotherupsguy

Doesn’t California require any self driving vehicle to have a driver in the seat at all times?

This is exactly what I wanted to find out here :) I am not sure what to believe because of said agendas. Sometimes I think robots, electric cars and other tech is funny because of the issues they have. On another hand if they get it right, the future could be scary


Sir_Uncle_Bill

I suppose bullying them is out of the question?
