How drivers were on the edge?

Self driving lorries have been in development stage for over 5 years. I don't count teslas into that cause on overwhelming average cars are driven not as work. Truck, busse and train drivers were under attack for a long time.

Self driving cars have been threatened for years. Trucks are practically here (on private roads currently). The desire is strong.

Long haul freight truck yes. There are a few test convoys driving through Europe's highways, with only a human driver in the first one. Trucks in smaller roads, or cities, are still quite a bit in the future.

Agreed. But the last mile driver will disappear eventually, particularly when hubs are designed for AI automation in mind.
