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

Artificial Intelligence is already dominating almost all fields around the world.
Driverless
vehicles
would be one of the aspects of technological advancements, which we could see in the near future, and these
vehicles
would be responsible for carrying
people
who are travelling from one place to another. In my opinion, the positives of
this
would be more than the negatives that I will discuss in my essay. The first and foremost benefit of
driverless
cars would be less number of
accidents
. We have seen that in many countries the percentage of
accidents
is increasing every day, and
this
leads to major injuries and an increased mortality rate.
However
, automated
vehicles
would be perfect for driving as there would not be any chance of drink and driving or any kind of negligence that would lead to deadly
accidents
.
For example
, in China,
this
trend has already started, and there are so many metro trains which are
driverless
.
In addition
,
this
would
also
result in lower crime rates and more safety. There are so many cases in various countries where taxi or
bus
drivers take advantage of passengers and indulge in crimes like stealing, robbery, and in fact rape.
For instance
, in India in 2012, there was a case called Nirbhaya that happened on a
bus
where the
bus
driver raped a woman to death because she was alone on the
bus
.
On the contrary
, if we talk about the drawbacks of
driverless
vehicles
then
the main problem would be increased unemployment. When all
vehicles
would drive from one place to another on their own
then
they would be fully automated, which clearly shows that there would be no need for
people
to drive them.
For example
, many
people
are employed as
bus
, train, and taxi drivers which assist
people
to commute, and
this
way, they are earning money for survival. Unemployment would eventually lead to less consumerism and less economic growth. In conclusion,
although
driverless
cars have negatives like underemployment, I am still convinced that fewer
accidents
and lower crime rates have more weight than drawbacks.
