It is driverless computer controled with video camera. For the long haul it can be coupled into a regular freight ((this one is with European couplers)) and towed with it's transmision in neutral. <br /> <br />I find it interesting but I wonder if it is too far out. <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />You never know what the Europeans will do, but as far as trying this out in the U.S. I'd say it is definitely too far out withot massive changes and who will pay for that? <br /> <br />LC
