Volvo has already contracted to build trucks with no cab or other accommodation for a driver….
That may not be a bad thing. If there’s anything that worries me on the highway, it’s the semi trailers. There’s a lot of pressure on those drivers to deliver within a time frame (and their pay depends on it) and so we have many drivers who are overtired while behind the wheel….or are staying awake through drugs.
Railroads are seriously discussing whether any crew is needed on long haul freight trains.
In Vancouver Canada, the public transit train system has not used operators for a few decades.
Boeing and Airbus both have designs for future airliners on the drawing board that have no cockpit or other provision for a pilot
That one makes me nervous. Driving across country starts to look better all the time.
