21st Century Car Crash Summary

Google’s autonomous car had clocked up 1 million miles on public roads, and the researcher planned to do more road test in the future in order to expedite launch the Google’s car. (Protalinski, 2015) The technology of autonomous car is mature enough to use. In addition, the law for autonomous car has been already passed in serval states including Florida, Nevada, and Michigan. (Boeglin, 2015) It seems to be obviously that autonomous are coming into and bringing profound effect in our daily life. However, before greeting this revolutionary vehicle, there are several problems that need to be solved, such as ethical dilemma, liability and privacy problems. In this essay, which decision is moral in emergency, who will be responsible for an accident made by an autonomous car, and how much intimate information of owner can an autonomous car use will be discussed.

Driverless cars merely shift liability from the driver to the manufacturer as every accident raises suspicion of a product defect. Faced with a new vein of product liability lawsuits, courts will apply the same principles they do now with semi-autonomous systems in airplanes and ships, but it won't be sufficient. For instance, so far courts haven't included software in manufacturing defect claims because nothing tangible is manufactured. The failure to warn issue is also problematic, because some embedded technology requires no operation but can malfunction if an owner modifies the vehicle.

It’s a dark rainy night. You and your family are coming home from a late night family party. As a car is coming through an intersection another car cut in front of it. The driver decides to hit the brakes so you can avoid the car, but as he presses the brakes, the car loses control on the slick wet road. He is not able to gain control and at that point he has endangered the lives of himself and many others on the road. This is just one example of the many types of things that occur in our streets everyday. All that would have been needed to avoid this situation would have been a traction control system in his car, which would have detected that the car was skidding and would have applied the brakes to

Right now self-driving cars and trucks are hitting the road and will soon be available to the general market . Major companies like Google, Tesla, Uber and Delphi are leading in autonomous cars industry. In the past few years, these companies have made great strides improving this technology. Addressing the concerns for this technology must be concluded before it reaches the general public. Given the current state of automobiles that don’t need drivers the American consumer needs to be mindful that moral decisions this technology is handling puts them at risk due to the fact that this is emerging technology, laws are being made that will shape this technology, and who is choosing who lives and who dies.

The same that was said about The Happy Life home can be said for the self-driving car accident. Now that the manufacture of the vehicles know the weakness of their product they can make improvement to it. This will lead to safer roads while also leading to a smarter way of

if the car gets into a car accident and if it wasn't the other driver's fault who are they going to blame do they blame the cars programing,the maker of the car, or the driver of the other car. What if someone was in a driverless car and that car gets pulled over who are they going to blame if the passenger wasn't driving?

The article, “The Promise of a Post-Driver Life” states, car accidents occur every day, leaving someone seriously injured about every seven-seconds and one dead about every fourteen minutes (Humas). Surprisingly, driverless vehicles are on the rise and people do not know how to react or what to think about them. While the number of accidents on the road has increased over the years. Driverless cars could be a solution to help to mend the problem and help eliminate driver errors. Some people believe we should have driverless vehicles while others say they would be too dangerous. Many people in the United States feel driverless cars can create a decrease in the number of accidents, create a better traffic flow, and create greater mobility for those who cannot drive, while others say it would be too hazardous with possible computer malfunctions, cyber attacks, and relying on algorithms to make ethical decisions.

Mr. Arms neighbor that looked over his car and said it was fine to drive could be liable for Mr. Arms head injury. The neighbors act of kindness could be a form of negligence. Since he did the work for so cheap he might not have done an amazing job of looking over the car. We also do not know how much experience he has with fixing cars. Mr. Arms should have gone to a professional to look at his car. He might have spent a little more money, but a professional mechanic would have done a better job.

One of the biggest challenges facing autonomous cars is legal issues. As of right now computer technology and artificial intelligence face numerous legal battles. Most people have heard of the technology that Google is creating in an attempt to make a “driver-less” car. As the technology gets more attention in the news Google’s driverless car has become a very opinionated and sensitive topic. People often ask questions like “What if Google’s car hit someone? Who would be at fault for the accident Google or the owner of the car?” These questions are currently being debated at the state and federal levels.

The article was about one of the most brought up topics recently in cars. Which is the evolution of cars in which they are programed to be able to operate themselves. Or As the article suggested driverless cars. The article fist started with the introduction asking questions about the drivers and how they can get distracted easily. For example one question asked “Might the driver choose to speed up as he approaches a yellow light at an intersection, in order to avoid stopping short when the red light comes on”. They start asking these questions so that the reading can understand what the average driver thinks during a drive. After the questions end they start to compare the driverless car to your standard driver. They state how every decision made on the road has a practical and moral component to them. Also that driverless cars don’t have this problem since they have

Relying on the vehicle insurance to cater up for the damages unfortunate incidents and accidents.

The Car Crash Study was done in 1974 by Loftus and Palmer that was aimed to test their theory that the language used in an eyewitness testimonies can alter the eyewitness’s memory of the event. They got 45 American students and showed them 7 films of traffic accidents, ranging from 5 to 30 seconds, in a random order. Afterwards the subjects were asked to describe what happened as if they were at the accident. They were then asked more specific questions such as, “About how fast were the cars going when they (smashed/ collided/ bumped/ hit/ contacted) each other?’. This was to see if the if the verb used in the question would affect the answers given by the subjects which it did. In the next part of the experiment they showed 150 students a one-minute film that showed a car driving through the country side followed by four seconds of a multiple traffic accident. Afterwards they split the students into three groups and asked them different questions. The first group was asked “How fast were the cars going when they hit each other?”, the second group was asked “How fast were the cars going when they smashed into each other?”, and the third group was kept as a control group and wasn’t asked anything. One week later they were asked, without seeing the film, ten questions about the film. One question asked “Did you see any broken glass? Yes or No?” which there was none. The results showed that more participants who were asked “How fast were the cars going when they smashed?” said

The dream that I chose to use interpret with the dream dictionary was about a car crash. I was in the passenger seat of a car driving up an overpass and the car fell off the overpass.

In this Car Crash Project, we had to make sure we used Newton’s 3 laws. Let me explain you how I used the 3 laws in my project. For my project, I had three main important parts in my car. One of them was the crumple zone because the car is in motion until it hits the yellow which is the outside force. In Newton’s First Law he states that every object stays in motion unless acted upon an outside force. Here the object in motion is the car, and the outside force is the yellow stump. Another main component was the seat belt. The seat belt fell in Newton’s Second Law. In that law, it explains how force equals mass x acceleration. So, When the egg is wearing the seatbelt it will stop the egg from accelerating or being in motion. If it was accelerating
