Better than staring at the road..
- pavel_lishin 12y agoSpeaking as someone who is sometimes on that road in a vehicle that is much smaller than a truck, I would strongly prefer that they keep staring at that road, and everything else on it.
- Dylan16807 12y agoI'm in such a vehicle too, and I think you're crazy to want that. If they spend 6 hours unnecessarily staring at the road while autopilot is on, they're not going to be anywhere near peak driving condition when they do take over.

- enraged_camel 12y agoBrilliant idea! Just give them one of these and a laptop and let them learn some coding on Codecademy while on the road: http://www.amazon.com/AutoExec-Wheelmate-Steering-Attachable-Surface/dp/B00E1D1GY6/ http://www.amazon.com/AutoExec-Wheelmate-Steering-Attachable...
