Self-Driving Cars
By Danny M.
Not so bad. Autonomous vehicles have immense potential to not only make roads safer, but increase traffic efficiency, save the environment, and boost worldwide productivity. This seemingly impossible reality is slowly gaining speed, with most automakers having pledged to have at least their semi-autonomous systems available by 2020. The public opinion is mixed—many are eager to experience this technology, while others are hesitant to embrace it. Although some are doubtful, self-driving cars should help make the world a better place.
