Robert Peterson’s article, “Will Self Driving Cars Be Good for America?” (2016), asserts that Americans are ready for autonomous cars, and that self-driving cars have many advantages over their counterparts. Peterson first develops his claim by stating that Americans have used autonomous travel ever since horses pulled buggies, and that autonomous travel is not new, it is just better; Peterson then supports his claim by presenting a statistic which states that roughly 32,000 people die each year from vehicular accidents and 93-95% of them are caused by human error, Peterson advocates that self-driving cars would decrease the number of fatalities from such accidents, as the technology of the vehicles would work to avoid these tragedies, and
Alternaternative Drives -ed Alternative drivers-ed is something a little different than it is now. Alternative drivers-ed is making drivers-ed easier and more affordable. For driver's-ed this year it is almost $500. Some families have a lot of kids and can’t afford that. Our next point is that the time is inconvenient.

Of all the accidents 30,296 were fatal and 2,239,000 were injured. In 2015 35,092 motor deaths occurred in the US alone. Currently there are 253 million cars in the US. The human element makes driving extremely dangerous, but what if this aspect could be erased? The recent introduction of driverless automobiles from
The emissions laws are so messed up that even the way cars are tested has problems. Emissions tests are performed by attaching a hose of sorts to the tailpipe, putting a specified amount of fuel into the vehicle and drive the vehicle on a machine to find how much carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons are coming out of the tailpipe. The problem with this is that, while it helps lower the amount of harmful gases released per gallon of fuel, it takes more fuel to go a certain distance with an emissions ‘reducing’ system on the vehicle and that is not accounted for and only a few substances are tested for. As the article “ASM Smog Check Results” explains “Carbon Dioxide and Oxygen are measured too. These discharges do not have any bearing on whether your vehicle passes or fails a smog check.”
Impaired drivers should have their licenses revoked for a year Everyday in the United States alone, 28 people die in motor vehicle accidents meaning that one person dies every 53 minutes. The amount of impaired driving related accidents is rapidly rising and is not showing a sign of slowing down. It seems that the laws and penalties against impaired drivers are not stopping people from continuing to do so. Drivers who have been caught impaired driving should have their license revoked for a year. This way, we can take the irresponsible drivers off the road; saving lives, repairs, time and money.
Can you believe that truck driving is currently the most popular job in 29 states in America according to the US Census Bureau? Yet as the speed of current developments in technology is continuing to evolve at an exponential pace, truck driving would soon be next in line on the endangered-jobs list because self-driving vehicles are on the rise. The Fourth Industrial Revolution, typical of the technological breakthroughs such as artificial intelligence, machine learning, quantum computers, blockchain technology, 3D printing, advanced robotics, and automation has come. While these advancements are likely to drive future prosperity, some will pose challenges for workers and societies especially in ASEAN job markets with more low-skilled workers.
On May 21, 1934 Ted Rogers, became the first truck driver in America. Ever since that day trucking has become the biggest part of America and one of the most important jobs. to this day truck driver is one of the things that help keep America working together. It’s help feed the people and get the product to make home for the people that why I pick truck driving to be my senior project. Before a student pick a truck driving you must know the job that you will be doing for the rest of your life.
Driving seems like a simple task, after all most people in the world do it in what seems to be an effortless way. What people fail to talk about are the difficulties of driving after doing it for such a long time, specifically when you reach your elderly years. Elderly drivers are faced with multiple issues when driving on the road, including weather conditions that make them experience fear about driving, medical complications and health status that affect the way they drive, and age-related vulnerabilities that alter the way they used to drive as an adult. Elderly drivers should be required to reapply for their driving licenses to not only ensure the people around them are safe, but also to ensure their own safety. As people become older,
How we ensure that the new driving test is fair for people with disabilities The new driving test will be with us in a matter of months, and we want everyone who’s capable of driving a vehicle safely to have a driving licence. We’ve ensured that when we made the changes to the driving test, we involved a number of organisations which represent people with disabilities, such as autistic spectrum disabilities, deafness or dyslexia to ensure that we get it right. Having to take the practical driving test is enough to make most of us nervous, most people get there in the end, but in the meantime it’s a big part of your life. There’s no way that the level of the driving test should be lowered for anyone, the test must ensure that everyone on the roads can drive a vehicle by themselves to the standard set.
Self-driving cars will not only revolutionize driving, it will change the way humans currently live their lives. Hod Lipson and Melba Kurman in their book, Driverless, state that “In the coming decade, self-driving cars will hit the streets, rearranging established industries and reshaping cities, giving us new choices in where we live and how we work and play.” (Mrs. Heyne – this is in the summary of the book, what should I put here as a page number?) Self-driving cars aren’t science fiction anymore, they are real, and they will be purchased by consumers in the millions within the coming decades. Autonomous cars are proven to be safer, and much smarter than manually-driven cars.
Did you know that tens of thousands of people will lose their jobs when self-driving cars hit the road? Did you know that you can buy a house for the same price as a driverless car? Self-driving cars are about to take over the highways, but these vehicles are on a course destined to crash. Not only are these cars expensive to purchase, but they will leave many without jobs and these cars will add to our already lazy do-it-for-me society. I believe that self-driving cars have no business on the road.
Cars are the most important products in the modern lifestyle. Whether it’s going to work, school, the mall, or even your friend’s house, it’s likely that you will be using a car to get there. I’m sure everyone here has a car, and I’m also sure everyone here will be buying another car in the future. Whether you want a car that can fit a large amount of people, or a sports car that can go extremely fast, an electric car will almost always be the best option for you.
Supporting Evidence #1: The U.S. Department of Transportation, Forbes Magazine and AUVSI Organization all said ‘that there will be significant cost saving for insurance and healthcare costs associated with accident recovery alone’. In fact self driving cars can save $1,000 per year in insurance according to Forbes magazine. The reason is that self driving cars save
Speed limits are vital to ensure people’s safety, both the driver’s and surrounding pedestrians. The most common cause of road accidents are because of speeding. The higher speed increases the chance of an accident. Enforcing speed limits may help prevent accident that occur on roads. Statistics show the Each year over 700 people are killed in crashes involving someone exceeding the speed limit.
