        This is brilliant! You can even let the front truck pull all the others tied behind it so you need fewer working engines.

        What if you added guide rails to the lane so the trucks didn’t have to steer?

          I dunno, companies would start cutting costs by firing all but the front driver. Need strong unions in place before that.

          And we could manage traffic stops when one is going to cross another street so it can save on fuel for not having to stop!
