[QUOTE="MattE, post: 3580129, member: 52271"] If you're asking why I can't drive, it's vision related. I have better than 20/20 vision in one eye and just bad enough in the other to not pass. I was born this way and don't know any difference. Been driving since I was 14 with a motorcycle license. I found out about an exemption package and applied, but they denied it due to lack of commercial driving experience. So I'm caught between a rock and a hard place. Oh that's what I'm getting at. With automation you still need people, just less of them. So replace those PT'ers like me who aren't going/can't go full time/hybrid, with automation and hybrid drivers. Once that's out of they way, replace FT drivers with Hybrid. This is a very slippery slope for everyone. However I know several PT'ers who will probably think this is the best thing ever.... Hopefully I can help convince them of it's shortsightedness. [/QUOTE]
