[QUOTE="RPSman, post: 3580309, member: 51437"] This is horse hockey. What would a robot do if they encountered a situation such as I did at RPS. I was supposed to drive down this county road that deadended, driver release a package at the gate, which I did. However there was high brush on both sides of the gate, nowhere to turn around. I had to back 2 miles down this road (last mile was more like a two lane cowpath) with a creek on one side, and an overhanging cliff on the other side. Tell me that a robot is going to be able to do that. Not likely! They were prophesying drone delivery also. There are still factors that require a human being, being in operation of the delivery. They have used robots for inter office delivery in hospitals, but they are rolling on smooth floors there. [/QUOTE]
