I read your post several times before responding to it. There is no need to read it again. This seems to be your stock answer. Maybe you should read it yourself.
Instead of saying that drivers ARE doing things like texting, drinking, et al, you say that driverless trucks are NOT doing those things - as if to IMPLY that there are drivers out there texting, drinking, and whatever. As many times as I can read it, it still IMPLIES that such things are going on - with the bright spot being that the self driving truck is above all of those things.
I also was a safe driver of a large commercial vehicle for about 20 years and nearly 2 million miles. I pulled 53-foot trailers through all 5 boroughs of New York City. I've been just about everywhere there is to be east of the Mississippi river. I doubt that there is more than 50 miles of road in New England that I have not driven over. I had exactly ONE wreck in all of that time. The wreck was investigated by state and federal investigators as well as two insurance companies and I was found not to be at fault by all of them. Not even 1% my fault.

Today's Featured Article - Tractor Hydraulics - The Basics - by Curtis Von Fange. Hydraulics was one of the greatest inventions for helping man compound the work he can do. It’s amazing how a little floor jack can lift tons and tons of weight with just the flick of a handle. What’s even more amazing is that all the principals of hydraulic theory can be wrapped up in such a small package. This same package applies to any hydraulic system from the largest bulldozer to the oldest and smallest tractor. This short series will take a look at the basic layout of a simple hydraul
