Many high street shops have gone out of business in recent years. Why do you think this has happened? Is it a possitive or negative development?

The matter of whether drivers can be replaced by automatic machines in the

next

generations has been a great controversy recently. I personally believe that robots' taking over

this

essay, I will give my reasons. It is indisputable that autonomous

Firstly

to their destination without human operators.

Moreover

, underage citizens who are yet to possess a driver's license for themselves could

also

be benefited as no particular essential skills are required to get on a robot car.

Secondly

, letting drivers give way to automatic machines would precipitate an observable decline in the incidence of traffic accidents caused by human error

such

as alcohol intake level or perceptual misjudgments.

This

is mainly because driverless

cars

are specially designed to sense their environment and perceive their surroundings without any intervals or mistakes, which could effectively tackle the problem of high accident

rates

nowadays.

On the other hand

, there are

also

certain opinions against the implementation of self-driving

vehicles

on human beings' roads. One of the most agreed reasons is that autonomous

cars

may have an adverse influence in terms of environmental issues. Due to the convenience of

this

type of vehicle, users are liable to overuse them,

consequently

releasing a huge amount of exhaust fumes into the atmosphere and somehow damaging the environment.

However

,

this

concern can be tackled effectively with governments' imposing

' owners and provoking energy efficiency. Another argument of objection refers to the fact that unemployment

rates

can rise higher than ever with the introduction of robotic

cars

as private drivers and public transportation operators might be made redundant

as a result

. While

this

may be true to a certain extent, there are

also

likely to be new occupations

such

as architects or developers working for driverless car companies, which would substantially offset the diminishing employment

rates

. In conclusion, while there are indeed some subtle downsides of automatic

vehicles

including environmental issues and unemployment

rates

, I strongly believe that these mentioned disadvantages constitute a far smaller segment compared to various upsides that can be brought to humankind in the future of
