re: I'm going to make a wild prediction: We will not see self-driving 18-wheelers for 50 years

This is just the saddest attempt at an argument I've ever seen here. This literally may be the worst one.
You made a stupid thread with a ridculous claim. Doubled down with this derp "The fact that there is not one driverless car on the road doing right now in the US" only to later confirm that that is not the case, and you didn't even realise it.
You would do well to just RA to have this thread deleted and hope everyone that saw it just forgets about it.

We know your stance, let's see how it plays out

So I did some more digging, not only is the technology not ready, the laws probably won't allow for it...it appears you cannot sue a truck manufacturer if you're involved in a wreck with an 18-wheeler, today you sue either the driver or the trucking company but if you get in a wreck with a fully automated rig you can only sue the trucking company...it seems trucking companies aren't too keen on the idea of being sued so they're not likely to adopt automated trucks without a change in the law. As we all know, getting a law this big changed probably won't happen without several years fighting it out in courts

No one said it is.

Laws certainly never change.

Does 50 fall within several?

Yeah, that would be a lot of shite that no one predicted.
Cars really haven't evolved that much since '69. Yeah, they're a little faster and have better fuel economy but they're basically the same as they were 50 years ago.

Except for cruise control, back up cameras, sensors, wifi, fully functioning computer systems with proprietary interface I agree

What's your deal, you disagree with me we get it...I have no idea why you're getting so worked up over this?

You chose to not just admit you were out of your depth on this particular topic. I'll keep posting responses if you keep making silly claims.

They will continue to get "smarter" but the basically the experience of driving a car is the same since Henry Ford's day

Nobody on this board knows what is going on
All I know, there are no self driving trucks on the road today and won't be until at least January of 2069

You could set a speed that would be regulated on different topographical planes on a model t?

I wouldn't go that far, and even if not there's certainly scores with more knowledge in the subject than you.

You know that? That seems to be a redicilous claim
