Driverless Cars Persuasive Speech

Have you ever thought that self driving cars will ever come to the market? Do you even think they are ready to be on the road? Would you have enough money to afford one? In the two Newsela articles relating to the self driving cars, driverless cars might be in the market in the next five to six years! My first reason is that you don't have to do anything when you're in the car. If you're going on a long trip you could just do your work or texting you friends or even just sit back and relax and enjoy the ride without driving at all. Right now people are inventing advanced computer systems so a self driving car can take you from one place to another without any human help. Another reason is that the self driving car can eliminate human accidents

Driverless cars are the technology of the future. There is no longer a need to drive using your hands, just type in your destination in the GPS, and the car gets you there. These cars are still being tested, but they are expected to get on the roads soon. There are some drawbacks that have held up the process to let these cars on the roads, but the companies will fix these problems. Driverless cars have a lower crash rate than humans, they are safe, and don’t make mistakes like people do on the road.

    Driverless vehicles, or the self-driving car, is defined as any car with features that allow it to accelerate, brake, and steer a car’s course with limited or no driver interaction (BI Intelligence par.4). When most people hear the term “driverless vehicle”, people instantly think cars that drive all by themselves, meaning that the vehicles are able to completely control themselves while the driver can sit back in the driver’s seat as if they were the passenger. The reality is that it will actually be a few years before fully self-automated vehicles will make their debut on the road, but for now the car companies and manufacturers are adding self-driving features of the latest models of cars. For example, the 2016 BMW i3 has the capability to self-park itself without the need of the driver to control the steering wheel. This reduces the risk of the driver hitting another vehicle while

Self driving vehicles is a huge change in our society. We are taking the next step into the future and creating something bigger than ever. Driverless cars can be a good thing and a bad thing in todays society. We depend on so many things now, the older we get and the more time goes on, the lazier we get. Being Americans, we are putting our thoughts and ideas to the ultimate test to create something so dangerous but so efficient. We have thought of ideas that would make our lives "easier" and less stressful. In this paper I will describe how driverless cars work, the current problems and setbacks that we are having, and how this new technology is being put to use today.

As technology in automobiles continues to improve, the debate over driverless cars has become more frequent. A self-driving car is able to move and navigate on its own using sensors and programming technology without human control. Many people believe the development of driverless cars would be beneficial because they could reduce the risk of hitting another car. The sensors and navigation would be able to avoid accidents, while drivers usually get distracted and would be able to use their time leisurely in the car. A self-driving car may allow people to drive when unable to in the past, such as children and disabled persons, and can be more cost-effective due to cheaper insurance. However, self-driving cars could be extremely expensive and can easily malfunction and therefore not always reliable, while also decreasing the safety of pedestrians and children who may attempt to use the car without permission. With new technology and distractions, driver’s minds can easily wander and become preoccupied. Technology can easily malfunction, and something as small as my phone or a light bulb will glitch frequently. I often see cars stranded on the side of the road because the engine went out or broke down; imagine how catastrophic an accident could be if a sensor in the car went out. Driverless cars are not beneficial to society because while there are favorable aspects of a self-driving car, one can malfunction and add new risks to the road, as well as potentially hurting the

Imagine never having to touch a steering wheel again and using this time at your leisure. According to the article PRO/CON: Will self-driving cars be good for America? By Robert Peterson and Eric Peters, Tribune News Service this may be part of our not-so-distant future. Recently many companies have been experimenting with driverless car technology and this could mean a whole new generation of driving. This new driverless car is the safe, clean, and refreshing gateway to the future of automobiles.

Did you know that driverless cars are most likely going to be in our future? Neither did I but the driverless cars would be able to reduce traffic jams, save billions on gasoline, and can communicate with each other and the environment around them. The fact that driverless cars are going to be a part of our future is big, so we need to give them a chance.

Do you think that driverless car are coming in the future to help us out? Driverless cars will be here before you know it, but will they be a good thing or a bad one. Driverless cars will not be a good thing because you still need to learn how to learn, they will be expensive, and if the driverless car crashes no one would be liable.

Driverless cars, despite their name, require a person behind the wheel. People have the potential to abuse or misuse this feature of the car. A drunk person could get into a driverless car with hopes of his car driving all the way to his next destination and crash due to the car needing the driver. A person driving a long distance could fall asleep

If driverless cars become available to the public, we will be one step closer to letting the technology we are creating ruin our lives. With these cars taking over the need to learn to drive, people will began to demand other technology to be developed that will take over the need for us to do mundane tasks. If we get so dependent where we need technology to do everyday tasks for us, developing better technology will become the center of our universe. Although driverless cars will lead to the destruction of our world, developing this technology is a good

Have you ever been on the highway and someone passes you going almost 70 mph then has to slam on the brakes? Well this is where driverless cars come in at. There are reasons why some people might choose driverless cars, they use half the fuel, you wouldn’t have to buy a car, and they are more flexible than a bus. The driverless cars would use half the fuel or maybe none at all.

Is this new car going to be a disaster waiting to happen? “Driverless cars rely primarily on pre-programmed route data, so they don’t obey things such as temporary traffic lights. They also have problems figuring out when objects such as strewn papers are harmless, so they may swerve for no reason.”(Haskins and Flora) “The widespread use of driverless cars would also raise issues of legal liability, such as who’s liable when one has a wreck, something that could take years and many lawyers to sort out.” (Haskins and Flora)

In recent discussions of growing technology, a controversial issue has been whether we are ready for the advancements of driverless vehicles. On the one hand, some argue that these advancements have already proven that we are ready. On the other hand, however, others argue that we need to have more experience with the technology before we can be ready. In sum, then, the issue is are we ready or not for driver-less cars. While others think that driverless vehicles can’t be trusted yet without a commission to help lawmakers with regulating the vehicles and government officials that know more about this technology to better watch over it, I believe that we are ready for this new evolving automobile because driverless vehicles already has too much potential beginning with its self-automated breaking system and warnings.

According to The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, driverless vehicles are not ready to be driven on public roads for purposes other than testing. But why is this? Self-driving cars operate through similar navigational software as a smartphone and traffic obstacles. However, they don’t yet respond to the actions of other drivers and pedestrians. This is evidenced by the Google driverless car that crashed into a bus to avoid sandbags that is making headlines all over the news this week.

The future is here, and most people need to be alerted to any changes. Every day people realize that something new has been innovated; therefore, people try to go for of the latest innovations. Nowadays, computers have been implemented in new cars. For example, Audi with an automatic parking system, Ford with its systems of hands-free calling and hands-free tailgate, and many other similar cars have brought new innovations to the automobile market. The reality is that in the near future we will have cars driving by themselves; as a result driverless cars should be accepted in society soon. Government should permit the driverless cars to be on the streets because they have many significant benefits that easy outweigh any
