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

#future #cars #buses #trucks #driverless #people #passengers #vehicles
It is said that the era of vehicles with
drivers
 will eventually reach its end and in the future
people
 travel with
driverless
 means of transportation.
Although
 there are some negative sides to
this
 trend, I think that the benefits are far more. On the one hand, some
people
 assert that
driverless
cars
 cause many
people
 to lose their job. Nowadays, many works as a
driver
 and the idea of automobiles without
drivers
 pose a huge threat to them. As most of these
people
 are without proper education,
this
 means that they will be on the verge of poverty. Take an old
driver
 who has worked for many years in
this
 position
for example
; it would be impossible to find a new job after the abolition of his occupation.
Furthermore
, many think that
driverless
cars
 are not valuable enough. They believe that artificial intelligence is not smarter than human beings, so it is probable that the rate of accidents will rise after the domination of
driverless
cars
.
On the other hand
, others argue that
driverless
cars
 make life more convenient.
Although
 many
people
 are sceptical about the reliability of
this
 state-of-the-art technology, it is completely risk-free because there is not any human error involved in the process.
For instance
, most collisions on roads are the direct result of sleepy
drivers
 who do not pay enough attention to the road.
However
, with the benefit of a car without a
driver
, there is no danger coming from bad
drivers
.
Moreover
, Having
driverless
cars
 means that the cost of transportation will decrease dramatically since the companies can save the
driver
's salary. In conclusion, even though a group of
people
 do not believe in
driverless
cars
 and think that they are inefficient, benefits like cheaper and risk-free transportation, make
driverless
cars
 a desirable advance in technology.
