c. at least others of the perception sensors in each assembly further comprise a forward facing sensor and a rearward facing sensor that have at least one region of overlapping field of view along at least one side of the truck; and

wherein at least some of the sensors have a field of view that extends upward and downward from a plane that is tangent to a surface of a road on which the truck is travelling; and
one or more control computers configured to actively control the field of view of one or more of the sensors to compensate for road camber and vehicle attitude.
