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?

As more news has been concentrated on autonomous
cars
, more on-road tests have been conducted by different companies.
People
 in contemporary society believe that, in the future, all kinds of
vehicles
 will be autonomous.
However
, not all
people
 think that autonomous will be conducive to
humans
' future development, some argue that driverless
cars
 could even do harm to us. From my perspective, I believe that autonomous
vehicles
 could bring both benefits and harm to
humans
. On the upside, using driverless
cars
 could remarkably reduce car accidents, making the road much safer than before. In a tense situation,
for example
, when driving a highspeed car on the highway, human drivers will often be in a panic, in which they may unconsciously make wrong decisions that lead them to accidents. But when AI have
control
 of the
vehicles
, they will not be as sensitive as
humans
, they will be more rational than
humans
 and make wise decisions based on computing results.
In addition
, passengers in autonomous
vehicles
 will not need to focus on the traffic but enjoy the trip. They could read books, watch movies and do their work during the drive to the workplace, their lives will slow down and be more relaxed than ever before. On the downside, autonomous
vehicles
 could
also
 be detrimental to
humans
. When the moment the decision to let AI
control
people
’s
cars
 is made,
people
 will face the risk of losing
control
 of it. In most road tests nowadays, top companies like Tesla, have all been dealing with accidents
due to
 losing
control
 of AI. So far, autonomous
vehicles
 are still precarious, and will not gain the trust of most drivers in a short time.
Overall
,
people
 using driverless
cars
 are likely to face a great deal of uncertainty, making it still a dangerous form of transportation. In a word, the future of autonomous
vehicles
 is beautiful to imagine, but the fact that the technologies still have shortcomings is
also
 unignorable

Include an introduction and conclusion

A conclusion is essential for IELTS writing task 2. It is more important than most people realise. You will be penalised for missing a conclusion in your IELTS essay.

The easiest paragraph to write in an essay is the conclusion paragraph. This is because the paragraph mostly contains information that has already been presented in the essay – it is just the repetition of some information written in the introduction paragraph and supporting paragraphs.

The conclusion paragraph only has 3 sentences:

  • Summary
  • Restatement of thesis
  • Prediction or recommendation

Example:

To summarize, a robotic teacher does not have the necessary disciple to properly give instructions to students and actually works to retard the ability of a student to comprehend new lessons. Therefore, it is clear that the idea of running a classroom completely by a machine cannot be supported. After thorough analysis on this subject, it is predicted that the adverse effects of the debate over technology-driven teaching will always be greater than the positive effects, and because of this, classroom teachers will never be substituted for technology.

Start your conclusion with a linking phrase. Here are some examples:

  • In conclusion
  • To conclude
  • To summarize
  • Finally
  • In a nutshell
  • In general
