Gee, what could go wrong with a ~50,000 pound vehicle that's potentially an automated death machine? (hexbear.net)

Something something torment nexus.

If only there were a way to link up a bunch of trailers on wheels, but they could have their own road, next to the one for cars. Theoretically, it would only take a couple of people to operate such a vehicle, because the road would have rails. But alas, no such thing exists

Nope sorry that's impossible.

Instead the roads will be filled with hallucinating death machines.
