A little bit of an aside but I watched some people deploy an autonomous underwater vehicle. It was an uncomfortable feeling watching it ($100K+) drive away and then sink under the water.
I can only imagine watching your 15000 pound simi drive onto the highway.
The driverless portion is Hwy 45 between Houston and Dallas, also known as the road with more accidents than any other in the US. Not a great choice for testing autonomous trucks.

Article doesn't say but I wonder if the autonomous portion is interstate only and for the "last N miles" a driver is needed?
