If they have no fear of arrest or anyone to stop them, they just block off all the street. Have all the trucks come down a particular street, take them over... they than have all the goods.

Of course, I'm not sure where the trucks are going plan on delivering to start with.

Tech has nothing to do with it, they put up a roadblock, stop the truck... truck is commandeered. Of course, I have no idea where they would plan on delivering to anyway... but I'm sure there is an app for that as well.

yep. The same cops will be on the street policing, but now they won’t have any rules to follow.

And only “privileged” people will be able to afford them. Brilliant move BLM

Yup, and they'll all be wearing rona masks.

Some of these people must have vacationed in Somalia and loved it.

What! They don't want to be harassed, dragged out of their truck, be beaten almost to death, have their rig stolen (along with the dangling truck nuts), and then labeled as a racist because they were upset about it. Damn! Come on guys.

No shite. Companies have been testing the tech for years. It will never be mainstream. As long as ports are getting shipment after shipment of cargo from around the world of consumables there will be truck drivers on the road. A driverless truck can’t make the 2-6 week trips many of the drivers do today. The infrastructure will never support that model.

Truck driving is historically ranked as one of the most dangerous jobs in the country. In 2018, U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistic reported truck driving as the most deadly job in the country.


Surely they mean just black truck drivers, right?

Trucks stopping for a week brings this country to a halt. Kudos to Truckers if they're the ones that have the nuts to squash the insanity.

Autonomous trucks don’t make city/local deliveries. They would simply move between hubs or depots. You will always need a driver to deliver “last mile”. I’ve been in the business since ‘94.

No kidding. Some libertarians argue that there is no such thing as the progressive left and the conservative right and that these terms are simply a means of dividing us. Not so.

As a libertarian, I’m always inclined to gravitate to the people who don’t loot, pillage and burn private property as a means of addressing political grievances. All the left knows is destruction. That is anarchy, not libertarianism.

Libertarianism will only function in a moral society. More common ground exists between libertarians and conservatives than not. If both diligently attempted to understand the other better, their joint desire in combatting the oppressions of collectivism would better succeed.

How much less of a force do you think exists to do only this job? 1/3? 1/4?

As a libertarian, I’m just glad someone is putting the blame where it is due.

It is often said that Somalia is a libertarian utopia.

Nonsense.

Somalia is a failed Marxist state.
