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?

There have been
people
suggesting that all the vehicles that run on the roads
such
as
cars
or buses will no longer have human drivers and
instead
, the vehicles will automated by AI.
Although
this
situation has some drawbacks, the potential of a reduced proportion of traffic
accidents
outweighs any potential disadvantages. First of all, with the technological advancements today we have reached, there are lots of machines run by AI. In the
future
, it is assumed that
cars
, buses or trucks will be
driverless
.
However
, we ,as humanity, still don’t trust them enough because of a lack of knowledge and we might feel unsafe with
driverless
cars
in the
future
. Studies show that, when

Thus

would fail.
However
, the possibility of reduced traffic
accidents
, in my opinion, outweighs any potential disadvantage.
For instance
, if you are driving after a sleepless long night, the possibility of an accident is 68% because of lack of attention.There are lots of proofs indicating that machines run by AI, cause fewer errors compared with human beings. They are much more efficient and accurate
while
doing tasks.
Thus
, if the vehicles no longer have human drivers, it means fewer
accidents
happening. In conclusion, there are some benefits and drawbacks if we would have
driverless
cars
in the
future
. I strongly believe that the potential of no
accidents
happening outweighs any potential disadvantage.
