Yeah, those bloody workers with their anti-worker protests.
Have we had the quote about the Communist party having to dictate matters to the workers because the workers - poor plebeians that they are - simply do not understand what is good for them, and must be led by the kind, gentle government that will gulag them for non-compliance?
Yeah, you gotta love it. Lazy ass, anti-work trust fund NEETs bitching at blue collar workers because their honking is interfering with their fur babies and dilation sessions is where the commie left is right now.
I would be amazed by the retardation, but I can't be anymore.
Oh yeah. You can see it in the comment that didn't get purged. Oh noes, if this continues the boogey man of automation is going to take their job.
If they could automate truck driving they will and it's not going to have anything to do with protesting.
Good luck automating truck driving without a huge societal shift that takes human decision making completely out of driving anywhere for anyone AND that will require massive upgrades in infrastructure that is literally crumbling.
Yup, and there's also a legal point: under the law, the driver bears the responsibility for the vehicle's road worthiness. They are going to be the one careening through old people's homes if it goes wrong, after all.
If we take them out of the equation, where does the fault lie? The firm that made the automation? The fleet manager running the thing? How long exactly do you expect those parties - and more - will be batting responsibilities around the courts while people bury their dead - and there will be deaths, road traffic already accounts for a lot of deaths anyway.
The current state of play, while far from perfect, has the benefit of very simply, very obviously drawing lines about whom bears the costs of failures - because it's always the little guy. Remove them from the equation and you've got big corporates doing their best to duck responsibility right in the public eye, and people have already seen entirely too much of that.

After two years of these people preventing others from putting food on their families' tables, they should be grateful it's just some noise.
In most societies the city would be sacked and they'd be in mass graves by now.

Not the quote you were citing for, but the sentiment is summed up in this Babylon Bee story from a week ago.
