Seriously, this is a brilliant idea. It wouldn't make traffic slower.

You'd only need a very short journey (likely). Magnitudes easier, safer, and cheaper than trying to get self driving lorries.

I never have problems with them. Just follow the instructions.

I agree but it's definitely a loooooong ways off. At this moment I would be avidly against a self driving 18 wheeler considering we can't fully get self driving sedans right. Last thing we need is a multi-ton vehicle malfunctioning.

I want to live in the back of one as a tiny home and have it drive me around

Tesla Semis are already being made but FSD has a long way to go.

Fun fact: the biggest hold up on self driving cars/trucks is our decaying infrastructure. I heard something like 70% of our roads are unreadable by the self-driving AIs

As long as they start going faster than 60 or 65 on the freeway I'm happy, it's so annoying having to pass one.. then another one.. then another one.. unless you want to camp in the left lane idk what to do about them

A lot of the heavier trucks have to go slower cause it's to dangerous going at higher speeds. Self-driving trucks would stay strictly on their legal speed unless they have to slow down.
