I'm waiting for the first federal bill to require that all trucks over a certain size must be painted with some recognizable pattern, to these driving systems. All white, and perhaps all some other colors, will be illegal.

(I'm 1/2 waiting for this to appear in The Onion.)

You know what? You might be joking, but I wouldn't exclude that something along these lines could be put into law.

Or they could just copy the EU regulations and put an underride barrier on the trailers.

No, there's a lobby against it, because it's extra cost for.the trucking companies.
