When you see how crowded European truck stops are you realize that parking a truck there is probably the ultimate challenge for an autonomous driving system.
This system might allow two drivers to drive a convoy of maybe six trucks across a long distance of highway, but it doesn't provide much benefit over the existing road-trains that they use in Australia - and they've never been used in Europe.

It's still exciting and amazing though.
