Opportunity or Danger? Driverless Trucks Might be Heading to a Road Near You

Does the idea of a car that drives itself excite you or scare you? Probably both. Taking a nap, watching a movie, or getting things done (like analyzing stocks!) while en route to your destination sounds pretty appealing. Not to mention not having to deal with other drivers. But “trusting” a 4,000-pound vehicle to safely stop, start, turn, slow down, speed up, and react the millions of ways a human driver would is frightening.
