vehicles are being put into trial in China, and some achievements have been made on the prescribed roads. It seems to me that
although

there is no question that self-driving vehicles could be an enormous benefit, the demerits of the application of

overshadow its merits at present.
First

of all, the use of

cars may exert several social problems. On the one hand, the popularity of autopilot will inevitably make professional drivers lose their jobs by driving business vehicles. It is because that a self-driving lorry without faults can operate continuously and ensure safety for 24 hours, which mean it can produce multiple benefits that human driving is hard to achieve.
On the other hand

In other words

as parking spaces will become more intense.

has great potential risks. Autopilot is more like a robot, which is controlled by established procedures and AI chips. For all automated systems, there is always a risk of hacking or crashing because of faults or bugs ,by which I mean if hackers can enter the vehicle system, and the car may be controlled to do anything.
Moreover

, after the accident, it is difficult for us to determine the responsible party of the accident, so that the victims cannot get due compensation. There is no denying that

applications can save lives. According to statistics, 90% of road traffic accidents are caused by human errors, including the proportion of distraction, fatigue, drunk driving and speeding. A total of 1 million 300 thousand

in China alone, but the self-driving vehicle will eliminate all the accidents caused by human error factors, which will greatly reduce the incidence of accidents.
However
