Waymo: Google's self-driving car company

I assumed all trucks stop at a truck stop and the driver sleeps while another driver continues the journey? That way the valuable truck and cargo never stop moving.

Is that not typically the case?

In the US, sometimes truckers drive in teams and switch off, but I've never heard of them not sticking with their trucks. Trucks frequently sit idle while the driver sleeps.

At least in continental europe single drivers are the vast majority.
