text: Today, the problem with cars is simple. They are dangerous. There isn't a bigger risk today than getting in a car and driving. Hundreds of people die or are injured in a car accident today and most of them are due to humans. A driverless car could reduce the amount of accidents and deaths on the roads. There still is need of people being at the wheel of the vehicle, but with less human interaction of the vehicles operation, the less likely it is to result in failure on the drivers part. There is also a possibility of it helping drunk drivers. If someone gets into the vehicle, they could tell the car their destination, and be on their way. This could result in less accidents and less deaths with vehicles involved. However, on the flip side of things, this may not help. If a third party company creates a faulty program for the vehicles for a big company, the blame will be pinned on the big company for outsourcing. This results in more strict laws on driverless cars and could result in there being less appeal to the idea of a driverless, or semi-driverless, car. We're still a few years from having driverless cars, and even more from having completely driverless cars.
