Car Safety Automobile Safety 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

90 percent of road accidents are caused by human error. Driverless cars will work to decrease the number of accidents by eliminating one issue, driver distraction. In the late 1980's ABS technology was introduced, ABS technology works to help stabilize the car when in an extreme braking situation, this prevents the car from skidding all over the place. Further down the ladder of progress, we stop at 1995 with driverless cars progressing more by adding another step, stability control. Stability

The Future of Safety for Cars 1.2 million People are killed on the world’s roads every year. In America alone, 33,000 people are killed each year (Urmson). There have been a tremendous amount of car accidents which occur in the United States, these accidents may result in injuries and sometimes serious enough that the people aren’t walking away from them, automakers are doing enough to increase safety for the future of cars. In the past not every car had the top of the line safety as they do today

As a mother to multiple children and a former nanny, I have plenty of experience in car seat safety. Even so, it's always best to keep up with the most current info as some things will change as we learn more. Though changes may occur, there are some things that always remain constant with car seat safety. Choose car seats according to age and size An infant cannot ride safely in a booster seat. Likewise, a larger child should not be riding in a rear-facing infant seat. Read the manufacturer labels

Most of the automotive companies believe that the next generation of cars are going to be autonomous vehicles, but not all of them have the same opinion about it. Some companies want to bring a fully autonomous car to reality, which wouldn’t need any human interaction to drive the car, while other ones are interested in driverless cars, which need humans to drive them. Both “autonomous” and “driverless” concepts give cars more control over themselves, and both aim to give more comfort for mankind

Car Seat Installation: Making Safety a Priority Sarah A. Sherwin Denver School of Nursing Car Seat Installation: Making Safety a Priority A.) Every year thousands of children are injured or even killed due to a car not being properly installed or not following the guidelines to ensure safety. In all the excitement of getting the car seat at baby showers, picking up the color and style the family wants, sometimes safety is easily forgotten. Families do not realize it can be challenging

of an object to restrict its motion. Examples of inertia would be when a car is driving at a constant speed and instantly stops the person will fall forward if there is no seat belt. The seat belt is a safety device that is commonly found on car seats and aircraft seats, it is made from strong durable materials such as fabric, nylon or polyester. Cars that are manufactured are required to have seat belts due to road safety laws. The law was introduced in the 1970s, it was shown that having seat

In America alone, 33,000 people are killed each year” (Urmson). Urmson is the Director of Self-Driving Cars at Google, and in March of 2015 he presented a TED Talk in which he addressed issues of car safety. In his presentation, Urmson goes on to explain that for over a century, America has come up with ways to mitigate car safety issues. Manufacturers have specifically addressed the fact that car drivers often err, and in so doing, create unsafe conditions for themselves and others on the roads. To

highly automated vehicles “will save time, money and lives.” (3). Driverless cars are an on growing technological development that has been gaining popularity in the automotive industry. This new technology is being used in applications such as collision and crash avoidance, but arises a fear for safety. The moral dilemma surfaces from putting human lives in the hands of, essentially, a robot chauffeur. I plan to explore safety ethics through a Utilitarian, including the line drawing technique, and Kantian
