- LinuxBender 5y agoI understand what you are saying but could the article be making some incorrect assumptions? For short haul drivers the number may be 10% in coastal and southern states. For long haul I would estimate most of them will be traversing most of these conditions inter-state at least on third of the year and in some places half of the year. To get around that they would all have to divert to southern routes like I-10 in the US. That would add significant mileage to every route if so. I do not see how they otherwise get around the conditions I mentioned. All of them will be dealing with night, bumper-to-bumper and foggy conditions throughout the year regardless. I have not been able to find any videos of level 5 trucks traversing any of that.
