If anything, wouldn't the loads get larger.. since you could build trailers with more sensors, allowing more trailers to be attached to the same tractor... minimizing energy/fuel cost.
One tractor carrying larger loads is going to be more efficient than many small trucks with smaller loads: total weight over payload.
A human being can only safely handle so much cargo, and that's probably lower than could be automated.
