I see the evolution of automated vehicles as slowly taking more and more mental load off humans. e.g
1) Automated gears and obstacle detection - we already have this.
2) Have the truck stay in one lane and maintain distance - We're close. This means humans stay in truck and solve the hard problems when encountered. (Kind of like pilots)
3) Automated port to port driving without humans.
4) Destination to destination driving without humans.
