The purpose of a company isnโt to provide a job. Itโs to maximize profit. I trust the truck computer over most of the people currently driving on the road. A person can only look one place at a time. The self driving vehicle can see every sensor at once. Tesla FSD has done some really amazing things.
Indian businesses are always scamming, ESPECIALLY gas stations.
Whether it's card skimming, watering down the gas, or now, putting a screw on the pumpโs nosel cradle to save a few dollars, it's always some kind of scam, and as usual, THEY ALL ARE IN ON IT!
Most self driving vehicles are going to induction charging. Think like the iPhone mag safe chargers. They would just park over the charger. The braking system is regenerative so they donโt need to be replaced as often as normal brakes. The sensors in the vehicle would allow the person at a main hub to see everything related to the vehicle like tire pressure, battery life, etc. GPS like Waze operate in realtime and many partner with the weather to warn of things like high winds and forest fires.
Only issues I see are building the infrastructure (which the mass production of cybercabs this year will accelerate) and states adjusting their regulations to better accommodate self driving.
