Teamsters Sue California Over Self Driving Truck Rules California's regulations for self driving trucks have been hailed as a breakthrough in autonomous vehicle technology, but not everyone is convinced they're a good idea.
The International Brotherhood of Teamsters union has filed a lawsuit against the state over its new rules, arguing that they will lead to widespread job losses and inadequate worker protections.
The background on California's regulations is straightforward: self driving trucks are permitted on highways and in autonomous mode for long distances, provided there is at least one human supervisor in the vehicle.
