[edit] Plot
A small-town truck stop is taken over by driverless trucks, possibly caused by a toxic spill in the city. After the trucks cause numerous deaths, the remaining survivors (two teens, their fathers, and another lady citizen) are forced to escape the truck stop. They find it's very difficult to outsmart the trucks.
