Within a few years (and I mean less than ten), we will have trucks that self drive.

I would expect that these will be set up so they drive to your house, send you a text and you pick up your item from the truck.

These could run for hundreds of miles.

I expect in the UK that many HGV's will be auto driven (they are what we call big trucks in the UK). This is going to save a vast amount of paying people.

But as I have stated, drones cannot carry heavy items. It means that the amount of deliveries they can make are going to be small.

Fast food is going to be a big use to them as often fast food is not heavy and quicker its delivered the better, plus often the fast food shop is close by.
