    Eh, even If it does, it shouldn’t be a problem. Relying on a wireless link that could fail due to interference or jamming for actual control would be Musk-level insane.

    The hitchbot would need to be capable of visually following the lead vehicle, possibly using something like a big QR code for identification and tracking.

    The wireless link could be for telemetry like range and non-critical controls like “stay here” and “start following”.

    If the link fails, you get a big warning to stop ASAP but the bot keeps following.
