It wont be all at once. Those changes usualy go very slow. Especialy in the buisness sector.
Target. Walmart, Amazon, UPS,Lays, Annheiser-Bush …just a few companies who have already begun testing automated replacements. If you think they aren’t all biting at the bit to pull the trigger on this the second they can, you’re naive. They’ll see insane overhead price reductions and increased productivity, all leading to higher profit margins. The slow change already started years ago. You can retrofit an existing big rig for less than half the salary of a driver and utilize 3x the work hours.
And they’re going to produce thousands of those trucks in a month. And have them unescorted. Makes no sense.
