Advantages of having self-driving cars.

The evolution of automated driving systems is very much underway today. Indeed as
technology develops, vehicles will increasingly become more and more automated.
Here are some of the advantages of self-driving cars:

 Prevention of car crashes- computers with algorithms will essentially

eliminate costly human error
 Traffic efficiency- ability to communicate in real-time, cars would be able to
travel efficiently at optimized distances from each other.
 Better access- self-driving cars could be a safe and reliable mode of
transportation. Those with a disability or the elderly would be able to get into
a self-driving car without putting others at risk.
 Environmentally friendly- Autonomous cars will likely be electric rather than
utilizing internal-combustion engines

Disadvantages of self-driving cars taking over the roads.

 Security issue-sharing of network and security protocols among each

automated car
 Initial costs- new technology matures and it requires update in every
innovation
 Machine error- this will likely to occur since it is only controlled by machines
and output cloud data
 Veering to the left and striking a pedestrian
