Hello Jed, I think you are pessimistic about the time frame for auto driven cars, trucks etc. 10 years, at the most 15 years. I think we will see this technology implemented rather slowly though. Large expensive vehicle (read 18 wheeler) ought to be the beginning. There are really no big obstacles. Even with a side driver involved (to begin with) it might pay for trucking companies.
