What could possibly go wrong??

let's see them deal with the numerous TDOT walls of death dotting the highways and byways...

Thomas J Henry will be sure to tell us.

This won't happen. There's a thing called common sense and another called endless law suits.
And who's gonna plug these things in when they get low? And where arevthey going to.plug them in. They still have never built thousands of EV car carriers nation wide.
They have 3 chargers not 3 lot's of charges just 3 chargers.

Personal Injury lawyers gotta be salivating over this. I can see the Jim Adler “Texas Hammer” type commercials increasing five fold

Don't forget about Hacker-Jacking loaded rigs.

My stepson told me he watched a race on YouTube with driverless race cars.

Well, if not before, likely soon after.

It's all in the infancy now- like "smart phones" when they first came out. Yes, we will be the Beta testers on the road.

It might be hybrid- like airplanes are now- Pilot pushes a button and babysits the airliner on autopilot- he is there just in case something irregular happens, but otherwise the computer handles the majority of the mundane operational tasks.

No, it's NOTHING like smart phones. Smart phones can't kill other drivers or pedestrians.

Would they pull in front of you, while you are in the left lane and about to go around them and another truck and take 20 minutes to pass the same truck that you would have been by in about 10 seconds?

They will be flying off overpasses near you

It's not a bug- it's a feature.

Many kids born today will never learn to drive a car.
That's sad

There will be a day when it will be illegal to drive a car in cities and major highways.

I agree. In twenty years it will be inconceivable that humans were ever allowed to pilot a half-a-ton of metal at better than a mile a minute.
And whatever the death rate, we will be assured that it would be much worse with humans in control.

 

[V-Tach]

How will DPS stop them and conduct safety and weight inspections?

Who gets the tickets?

 

[MTA]

Maybe they will stay the fk out of the left lane

Looking at you @Texasgordo
