How about an AI that just blows an airhorn over a driver falling asleep?

How about... a WELL MAINTAINED RAIL NETWORK spanning the US? Maybe even with a bonus passenger high speed rail going up and down east and west coast, with a cross continental one going from east coast to Texas to west coast if we're getting really frisky?

Load 300 to 400 trucks worth of stuff on one train and two people to take turns driving the train and really significantly reduce the amount of drive time for getting goods to where they need to be.

Best we can do is poorly maintained railway duopoly and trains loaded with enough volatile material to level entire cities.

I cry in wasted tax dollars that are being siphoned to the ultra rich.
