If we go to driverless trucks, would the rest stops be staffed by robots?

I guess that wont be a bad thing for Warren. Ive been in trucking for over 40 years. On Jan 1 of 2018 as of right now all trucking companies are required to go with electronic logs. I already know for us anyway whats going to take place with getting trucks moved around. Its going to be difficult with the delays that are going on currently within the industry. I cant go into this much farther as it becomes political. But Im betting the truck stop business will be booming.

I'm sure Mr. Buffett is thinking the same thing.
