Will a driverless truck still overtake another truck while going uphill and traveling 2 mph faster than said other truck? I really like this when there are only 2 lanes.

So what's going to happen when the truck's camera-sensors can't distinguish where the sides of the road or the lane-markings are...say, on a rainy night, on snowy roads, or in temporary-construction zones? Pennsylvania has a lot of mountain roads (I've driven a number of them)...and that's a good way to lose a lot of trucks.

Doesn't surprise me since you have no knowledge of how these systems work or how far they have progressed. If you would take some time and put some effort into researching that with an open mind then that would be one thing, but I don't think thats likely lol

LOL. Who says I have no knowledge? I may not be an engineer, but that does not mean that I am an idiot. And just look at what Tesla and Google are going through with their self-driving systems....in some cases even facing litigation.

I don’t think you are an idiot at all, you’re just not well researched or experienced in this particular subject and you are biased against it to begin with.
