In the future all cars, buses and trucks will be driverless. The only people travelling inside these vehicles will be passengers. Do you think the advantages of driverless vehicles outweigh the disadvantages?
It is argued that all
vehicles
in the future, will not have drivers. There are some positive points and negative sides to this
viewpoint and I believe that the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.
On the one hand, there are some merits for driverless
cars. First,
people who usually have the responsibility of driving after
this
development can allocate their time to other activities. For example
, when a family want to travel, and a member whose task is driving, in the future he can dedicate his time to reading a book or even relaxing. Furthermore
, the rate of some dangers which are related to drivers will be reduced. For instance
, a driver who is tired and does not have enough concentration on driving can lead to a lethal accident. In this
method, these dangerous events will be minimised.
On the other hand
, we should not overlook the disadvantages of driverless
vehicles
. First and foremost is its effects on some careers. By this
I mean, some individuals whose job is concerned with driving will exposure to some threats like losing or even elimination, such
as taxicab or truck drivers. In addition
, smart vehicles
are programmed by computer codes which might have errors or bugs. Meanwhile, driverless
vehicle codes are running, if only one code has a problem, the function of devices will disturb. As a result
, some technical troubles will emerge which contribute to happening some issues such
as an accident or traffic congestion. However
, I think that these problems can be solved by authorities and coding programmers.
To sum up
, in my opinion, there are some pros to driverless
vehicles
. Advantages such
as alternating driving car time with other activities and reducing dangerous events rate are two of the prominent ones.Submitted by Masud on
