In Joseph A. Dallegro’s article “How Google’s Self-Driving car will change everything” he states that “ There’s also the question of security, as hackers could theoretically take control of their vehicles, and are not known for their restraint or civic-mindedness.” The idea of someone hacking into your car is frightening. Imagine what they could do. You could be on your way somewhere and the next thing you know, your car is driving you somewhere else because someone hacked in.…

There is a lot of controversy around this driver less car on whether or not it should become a reality. Although many critics say that the driver less car is a crazy idea, the driver less car would be a great idea because of how beneficial they are all over the world.…
The entire auto industry is focusing on building futuristic self-driving cars—except Mazda, who believes there are plenty of people who still enjoy the thrill of getting behind the wheel. The author, Joann Muller, utilizes a powerful opening paragraph that includes wonderful imagery. She establishes a serious and deliberate relationship with her audience, addressing the readers of Forbes magazine. She attempts to educate them on some major drawbacks of technology, specifically as it relates to automobiles. The most powerful rhetorical choice the writer makes is her utilization of imagery, however, she also includes several other choices to help put together a very strong piece of writing.…
Many people are still hesitant in accepting these new forms of transportation. In recent survey done by the Kelley Blue Book auto-rating company, a little more than half of its participants wanted to retain full control of their vehicles even if it wasn’t as safe as an autonomous vehicle. From this same survey, it was also shown that around 60 percent of its respondents knew little about self-driving cars and did not believe that they would see a day when all cars were fully autonomous in their lifetime (Halsey and Laris,…
The idea of driverless car has been worked on by major tech companies like Google and Apple since 2005. In the next four to five years’ driverless cars will be on the road if they can overcome some technological, ethical, legal, and business hurdles. Firstly, with current technological hardware and software there are not enough safety features that can guarantee the safety of the passengers and pedestrians. There is also the ethical issue of a driverless car that is programmed to prioritize saving the lives of pedestrians over the lives of passengers. There are demonstrations such as the one depicted in the article “Researchers hack into driverless car system, take control of vehicle” were driverless cars were hacked do to their reliance on wireless technology.…
Our world is changing more and more every day, technology is evolving and we find ourselves being sucked into the newest technology. Picture this, you are sitting around a table in comfortable leather chairs with a few friends drinking cocktails and playing cards. No, you are not at a friend’s house on a Friday night but you are riding in your driverless car heading to the mountains for a weekend away. This is the future of the automobile in the 21st century and it is just around the corner. This paper will discuss the ethical dilemmas created from the use of self-driving cars, by explaining the different ways that a utilitarian and a deontologist would view the situation.…
Knowingly endangering other people based solely on feeling uncomfortable is unethical. Fortunately, this sort of attitude does not seem to be prevailing in regards to self-driving cars. In most states, legal scholars conclude that self-driving cars are “probably legal”[9], though they recommend that states update the language of their laws to specifically allow for self-driving cars. A risk to the widespread adoption of self-driving cars is that an accident where a self-driving car is at fault causes an overreaction by governments or the public before self-driving cars are seen as a part of everyday life. The first chance of this happening occurred when the Google self-driving car got in an accident a municipal bus[10].…
In the World today, technology is evolving at an unimaginable rate. There are advancements happening in medicine and in engineering that was thought to be distant only a few years ago, and some that were only dreamt of in the 20th century. One of these many advancements has been in the creation of autonomous cars which have started emerging all around the world by companies like Google, Tesla, and some major car companies. Although there are some who are skeptical of the automation of cars with the reports of accidents from the likes of Tesla’s self-driving cars and even Google’s, there are also many benefits to the automation of transportation and it will even change the approach to travel in general and how people interact within their vehicles. Self-driving cars are no doubt the way of the future and will soon be a part of everyday life, but for now, there are still issues around them being brought up in pop-culture.…
