Yeah, but they don’t need to react within seconds when there is a problem. They can zone out and nothing bad will happen.
A driver-operator needs to be hyper vigilant at all times and react within seconds to any problems because at any moment the software could fuck up and kill someone.
Which is why this veto is removed
My point is that autonomous trucks shouldn’t be on the road, with or without drivers.
