Pros Of Self-Driving

Thousands of people die in car crashes while using cell phones and even the use of hands free technology. Also, “It found that people talking on hands-free devices drive at faster speeds than those using hand-held device possibly because the hands-free device provides a false sense of security, resulting in a greater incidence of car accidents” ("The Evidence on Hands-free Cell Phone Devices While Driving”).This study that was found shows that people who use hands free technology drive at a faster speed than people who use handheld technology. Therefore this study by researchers at The University of Utah helps to prove that drivers who use hands free devices are more likely to cause car accidents. Hands free technology is just as distracting or even more distracting than the use of regular technology. In fact, “More than 30 studies show hands-free devices are no safer than handheld as the brain remains distracted by the cell phone conversation” “The problem is the brain does not truly multi-task.

There are about 260 million cars on the road today. As a result of so many people driving, the chance of accidents increase and every year about 1 million people die from car related accidents. However, most of these accidents could have been prevented, because around 81% of these accidents are caused by human error. These errors could one day be eliminated, when people start to use self-driving cars, because there will be no need for human input when using the car. Self-driving cars, are a vehicle that can navigate its environment without the use of a human.

The higher the speed limit, the more likely the crash will be severe. There happens to be proven research that shows that speed has little effect on how fast people drive.“ People are capable of finding a good speed without the following the speed limit signs” (Boyles). Sometimes the driver gets distracted and loses his or her focus on the road. Speeding and being distracted, even by the smallest things, can cause an accident or even life threatening injures. When a person takes their eyes off of the road, anything can happen in just one second.

Now the cars have more technologies than the ole models. The modern vehicles embedeed with marvellous engineering, but the people might be worried about driving the cars by understanding all of its modern features. The too much techology in new cars can result to be a bad scenario. According to the recent analysis, many people share their opinion that the maodern cars are becoming too much complicated and making it more annoying in different ways. But the goal is, when you're in a car, you still have to drive it.

“Road crashes are the leading cause of death among young people ages 15-29, and the second leading cause of death worldwide among young people ages 5-14” (Asirt, 2016). Rising the age on driving is important, because the age play an important role in driving. Many people consider that driving at young age will have more accidents. Also, drivers should have high skills in driving, and how they can avoid accidents in many cases. Some teenagers get excited about driving, and they get the license quickly without performing.

For me, this technology is important for the future because there are a lot of car accidents that makes a lot of dead people. With the self-driving system, it could save a lot of lives because it would prevent collisions and detect all the possible sources of trouble. All over the world, there are more than 1.2 millions of deaths per year. More than 75% of the accidents are due to human errors. If we want to prevent accidents, this is the best way to do it.

That’s why we should start implementing laws for safety so these staggering rates can go down. Most statistics say that when a teen has a passenger in their car they felt like they were in danger because of texting and driving from the driver. When teenagers turn 16 they have this new freedom having their driver’s license and they feel free because they can go anywhere they like. But they still will make a lot of mistakes like texting while driving. Some teenagers won’t learn from it until they get

Many crimes such as murder and theft gain a lot of attention if committed, but things like speeding past the speed limit are also a crime, so they should gain attention as well, if committed. Frank Trippett, in his excerpt, says that “It is painfully apparent today that millions of Americans…..are taking increasing liberties with all sorts of ‘minor’ laws…”. He says that Americans ignore certain laws over others, because their impact is much less than that of something like rape or murder. However, these laws’ punishments are not as great as other crimes’ punishments, therefore making them seem less significant. The “foundations of social order are profoundly shaken...when citizens take a skirting to the law”(Trippett) is not as true as you may think.

Garcia 1 Angelica Garcia Professor Steph Dirw 0310-43008 20 March 2015 The affects of texting and driving ​In today’s society people have the habit to text and drive. This can cause many distractions on the road. One of the most serious and dangerous distractions is texting while driving. It can cause the diver to lose control of the wheel and cause a serious car crash or a person death. Although being in a car crash or accident can also cause serious injuries like being paralyzed from the waist down or in a deathly coma.

Driverless cars have the potential to provide a large boost to transportation safety compared to human operated vehicles. According to Jillian D’Onfro from Business Insider, Google has put its self-driving vehicles through an array of tests, including odd ones, such as how the car reacts to a porta-potty on the side of the road (“The Diabolical Tests for Google’s Self-Driving Cars”). All the tests that Google puts its cars through are designed for making their cars smarter through each test. If the car were to make any mistakes during the tests, Google would be able to correct it so it would not happen in the future. An article on Tech Insider, by Nathan McAlone, described Google’s self-driving car becoming “confused” by a bicyclist doing a

Not all humans are comfortable with this new technology and don’t trust their life with it causing them to panic or worry while the car is driving. For instance, in the text PRO/CON:Is the idea of driverless cars gaining popularity?”one of Google’s self-driving cars came to a crosswalk and did what it was supposed to do:it slowed down to allow someone on foot to cross the street.However, the human”safety driver” panicked and hit the brakes.” Many humans will not completely trust these cars causing them to do something unnecessary causing a deadly situation even though the car was perfectly driving. This is why humans should learn to trust these cars before they causing civilians to

Every time we face problems we tend to come out with easiest and simple solutions to fix them; however, sometimes these solutions create bigger problems and they are harder to solve. For instance, Robert Strange McNamara was concerned with the deaths and injuries from car accidents. The easiest and simple solution that he came up to avoid car accidents was the invention of seat belts. Even though wearing a seat belt did not take too much effort, for people wearing a seat belt meant that cars were not safe. This belief caused the sale of cars to drop.
