"textContent": "A system for destructive braking system for an autonomous truck traveling on a roadway includes an electronic control unit (ECU) configured for controlling a transmission for the autonomous truck. The destructive braking system includes a processing system communicatively coupled to the ECU, the processing system including a processor coupled to a memory. The memory stores executable instructions that, upon execution by the processor, configure the processor to receive an indication the autonomous truck will unavoidably collide with an object. The processor is further configured to determine to employ destructive braking. The processor is further configured to instruct the ECU to reverse the transmission to reduce momentum of the autonomous truck.",
