Moon if you have something of use to add go right on ahead

2019-10-04 23:41:00 UTC  

making a fully automated freight drone, with no cabin and no need or way of someone to steal it or hijack it or hack it, is going to take longer than you need to worry.

2019-10-04 23:41:14 UTC  

Me specifically yes

2019-10-04 23:41:25 UTC  

Because I will be out of this industry in 3.5 years

2019-10-04 23:41:29 UTC  

And it won't be feasible anyway because it could get raided by a roadblock that knew how to trip its sensors

2019-10-04 23:41:43 UTC  

However in the next 5-10 it is well within the realm of possibility

2019-10-04 23:42:11 UTC  

Implying that police no longer exist and people are setting up roadblocks for no reason

2019-10-04 23:42:17 UTC  

And then the cops would have to answer its artifical and often false alarms while it's in the middle of traffic if anything goes wrong.

2019-10-04 23:42:40 UTC  

Not necessarily

2019-10-04 23:42:53 UTC  

The troubleshooting on those alone is not worth the effort you ignorant paranoid prick

2019-10-04 23:43:08 UTC  

Nobody steals from a manned vehicle.

2019-10-04 23:43:10 UTC  

You just have a camera on there same as trucks already have

2019-10-04 23:43:15 UTC  

Having drivers is its own security measure.

2019-10-04 23:43:18 UTC  

Are you fucking serious

2019-10-04 23:43:25 UTC  

No one steals from a manned vehicle

2019-10-04 23:43:26 UTC  

A GPS can't beat you down if you try and mess with it

2019-10-04 23:43:43 UTC  

But you never mess with a trucker

2019-10-04 23:43:47 UTC  

Yes people do steal from manned vehicles

2019-10-04 23:43:49 UTC  

Yes people do

2019-10-04 23:43:57 UTC  

LA riots ring a bell?

2019-10-04 23:44:10 UTC  

Animal rights and enviro protestors?

2019-10-04 23:44:12 UTC  

"Why would there be roadblocks"

2019-10-04 23:44:33 UTC  

Unmanned self-driving freight trucks would be ripe targets for looters.

2019-10-04 23:44:52 UTC  

You want to call me ignorant you better do your homework

2019-10-04 23:44:56 UTC  

So are manned rigs

2019-10-04 23:44:56 UTC  

Or just hooligans who like crashing giant RC cars with no one in them to get hurt

2019-10-04 23:44:59 UTC  

Happens all the time

2019-10-04 23:45:23 UTC  

I have been told not to stop in certain places because I will get robbed

2019-10-04 23:45:30 UTC  

Because its happened to other company drivers

2019-10-04 23:45:39 UTC  

You dont seem to know much about the freight industry

2019-10-04 23:45:58 UTC  

Yet seem to want to call me an ignorant paranoid prick

2019-10-04 23:46:15 UTC  

Because the fucking Terminator is gonna steal yer jerb

2019-10-04 23:46:23 UTC  

No

2019-10-04 23:46:49 UTC  

Because an automated truck is plausible, and inevitable because of the meniality of the job

2019-10-04 23:47:03 UTC  

It doesnt take much to keep a rig from crashing

2019-10-04 23:47:16 UTC  

The robot doesnt even have to be perfect it just has to be better than the average driver

2019-10-04 23:47:47 UTC  

The average driver still needs several years of experience and a proper license, right?

2019-10-04 23:47:47 UTC  

Which in the next 5-10 years they will be

2019-10-04 23:47:54 UTC  

No

2019-10-04 23:48:05 UTC  

I don't think a Class C will cut it to be a trucker

2019-10-04 23:48:13 UTC  

The average driver only has to be 21 without serious health conditions
