text: Driving can be a task that is in turns difficult, as the driver attempts to maneuver through complex traffic patterns or around work zones, and dull, as the driver zooms through long stretches of open highway. Driverless cars aim to assist with both. Although the general manifacutring consensus is that driverless cars are by no means driverless - in most cases they must still have a human driver - the technology in the cars can assist the driver and make driving an easier task (Driverless, 7). In most cases, driverless cars are able to automatically "steer, accelerate, and brake themselves", taking the mundane out of driving (7). However, the driver is still necessary during times where the car is unable to fully process the situation, such as in work zones, and around accidents, still giving the driver a role in the operation of the car (7). Although these situations can be more strenuous, driverless cars, like most newer cars, have other ablilities such as anti-lock brakes and other sensors, which help detect problems with the way the driver is moving the car, and help prevent driver-related catastrophies (5). These improvements not only make driving safer, they put less stress on the driver, as the driver need not worry about making small mistakes and causing major problems when they know the car is watching out for them, leading to a more relaxed driver.
