text: One of the specific faults of driverless cars is the fact that they are not truly driverless. This is made evident when the author states that "In fact, none of the cars developed so far are completely driverless. This means the human driver must remain alert and be ready to take over when the situation requires" (7). The whole purpose of developing computurized cars is so that no attention is required by the humans within the cars. If the human still has to be "alert" and ready to drive, then the entire point of having these automated cars is negated. The attention required by a human takes away from the ability to relax and not worry about the road. To that point, if the operator of the vehicle is not able to fully relax, he/she would much rather be solely operating the vehicle for the strict purpose of keeping occupied. If they cannot risk leaving the car alone to occupy themselves with other things, than the entire purpose of the driverless car has been defeated.
