If you notice in the photo above, the top of the cab has arms coming off of it to the sides. Yesterday on the way home I passed a truck that had those. I realized that they were for cameras or sensors and thought "huh, that's new. Does the guy inside have screens that allows him to see what those see?" The truth is even more fantastic. I wonder if they are running with a dude sitting there as part of a trial or something.
