In the Otto model, no. The driver would be asleep or otherwise not at the controls. Operators for long-haul trucking are essential. Performing maintenance, safety checks, and loading/unloading assistance will have to be done by humans in the near future. I would not be surprised if this was something that was not automated away in my lifetime.
