CBS Money Watch states; “Some of the most important advances in automobiles today are not about making them faster or more fuel efficient. The goal is to make them safer.” In today’s society the need and want for technological advances comes many risk. However, the advantages provided may eventually outweigh its faults. When looking toward driverless cars, the technological advances may make way for more efficient and safe travel. Driverless cars should be used because they would make traveling safer and more efficient, and humans have been proven to not be the best drivers. Driverless cars should be used on the roads because they would make travelling on the roads safer and more efficient. Furthermore, driverless cars would allow for those …show more content…
In addition, recent studies have shown that human drivers are more likely to be involved in an accident in comparison to driverless cars. Cars of Tomorrow-Still Not Flying states; “Google has had a fleet of driverless cars since 2009, and they’ve driven over a half a million miles without a crash. Human drivers get in an accident about every half a million miles on average in the United States, so either the Google cars are due, or they’re going to out-drive humans yet again.” This explains that in recent humans are more accident prone and get into accidents more frequently. Not to mention the fact that amongst humans driverless cars could ultimately end up saving lives. Fischer who was interviewed at the New York International Auto Show tells CNN Money Watch, that by looking towards new crash mitigation technology it will worn the driver if an accident is about to occur. Moreover, it will automatically hit the breaks for the driver if there is something impending. This not only explains the ways in which travelling would become safer by depending on technology, it also shows that these technological advances could go on to save lives. Not only does research show that humans are more accident prone, but when using driverless cars not only would less accidents occurs it could also lead to the prevention of accidents, for humans, on
