Given the complexity of last-mile and the stated predictability of highway driving, wouldn't we see drivers sleeping while the truck was on the highway? Seems a bit pointless to have staff rostered to pick up vehicles for the last mile when they could just sleep in easier stints that the vehicle can manage itself. I think low-speed and light-weight campus taxis will be one of the first areas to go.

> wouldn't we see drivers sleeping while the truck was on the highway? What, and get paid for sleeping? Snark aside; it will just tie up drivers to one per truck. instead, trucks can drive themselves between depots/warehouses, and humans will do the last mile (1 driver:many trucks) and the driver can go sleep in their own home at night and be off the clock.
