Is this a problem most people face? Not to mention a truck isn't gonna be able to run away from anyone, driverless or not.

Kinda sounds like you're inventing problems here and pretending human solutions exist (again, how will any truck run away in the first place?)

I'd imagine a car will hundreds of cameras and sensors in it would be better equipped to deal with crime anyways.

This kind of thing comes up in driverless car threads all the time, it's quite odd. People trying to come up with complex situations that humans are likely to be terrible at themselves.

I've seen plenty around constructing some trolley-problem style moral argument about deciding who to kill in a crash. I don't know why it's expected that they'd have to solve, in a fraction of a second, a problem that people have been arguing over for years. The human reaction will probably be at the level of "jerk wheel quickly".
