In the future, all cars, buses, and trucks will be driverless. The only people traveling inside these vehicles will be passengers. Do you think the advantages of driverless vehicles outweigh the disadvantages?

In the coming generation, all automobiles will be self-driven conveying only travellers with their luggage. Though this has the benefit of helping to reduce avoidable human errors with its associated consequence of fatal accidents and death, the drawback of computerized vehicles' inability to adjust to less ideal conditions and sometimes unplanned changes in road paths can be a major challenge. However, I believe its positive values can offset the demerits.
