QUESTION Truck Drivers and Tesla Trucks
I've posted before about the disruption I fear that self driving cars will bring about. This one even brings our a new one I haven't thought of before where trucks platoon together, drive down the highway en mass and then a remote operator would only operate the truck for that "last mile" from the highway to the destination.

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.From what I’ve read and watched I believe self-driving vehicles are inevitable in the not distant future. Because so many people are employed as truck, bus and taxi drivers, I see that as the real predicament. Where will these people find employment? This holds true for fast-food, check out, and a myriad of other jobs that will be replaced by technology.

Technology will replace A LOT of jobs but hopefully in this instance it will lead to less traffic at peak times. I don’t think there will be a last mile problem.
