>Long haul trucking has far more things to go wrong than a short jaunt from two packed urban spots to another.

Some road side service response personnel could alleviate that. I personally think automating long haul would be a great thing, I've seen a lot of hair raising driving by truckers on I-84 and if we can't expand rail transport or zone commercial/industrial near rail access then I see this as the next best thing. Of course truckers would be quite vocal about any sort of change...
