Scientists predict in the near future cars will be driven by computers, not people. Do you think it is a positive or negative development?

Travelling has been greatly facilitated by a number of technological advances in recent years, and ultimately, cars will be operated completely by computers in years to come. In my view,

can have both positive and negative consequences on society. One of the main disadvantages of autonomous cars is that it will have an undesirable influence on employment rates of commercial drivers. There is little doubt that these people will be forced out of work when autonomous cars become the favoured preference.
