The Future of Road Travel – The Autonomous Car The future is here, well almost! Have you every heard of the saying, technology is growing faster and faster everyday? What if you could be able to go on a trip, and never once touch the wheel! Well the future is here! The self-driving car or better known as the autonomous car is a vehicle that is capable of doing everything that our traditional cars do without any help from humans. Autonomous cars use radar, GPS, cameras, and sensors to…

As the generations carry on, American car culture continues to remain important to our culture. As today, I am actually going to make my first vehicle purchase. When I first started to think about what kind of vehicle I was looking to purchase I already had many ideas going through my head. I was originally looking for a Honda, but things exactly did not work out that way. Also, in mind I wanted a vehicle that was great on gas, had tinted windows, and was made in 2006 or up. In addition, I was…

Self-driving cars were first thought up back in the 1970s but were never researched and developed until three Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), Challenges. The engineers who presented the most refined idea of a car that does not need a driver became the pioneers of self-driven cars and laboratories sprung up around the United States. In 2009, Google begins developing its self-driving car project, now called Waymo, and by 2013, major automotive companies including General Motors,…

and Findings) Driverless car will surely affect the sales of regular cars and it is expected, that shifting from the regular cars to driverless cars will add almost $600 billion a year in United States. The sales of Auto finance companies will also get affected due to Google car (Mui, 2013). This car will cover one-third land area of the parking lots and will prove an eco-friendly product to the society (Mui, 2013). With the usage of this car, it is highly expected that car will reduce the lost…

technological innovations come with great responsibility. A completely autonomous car can be driven into a situation where a life will have to be taken. This ethical issue is a problem for the engineers, the drivers of the car and society. A variable ethical setting in a car provides controversy over what the ethical setting should be and who should be responsible for the actions that the car will take. If the car was set to take the least amount of human life possible, it may lead to the…

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…

late sixties American muscle cars that our grandparents and parents grew up with we are starting to see a consumer trend towards the smaller carbon foot print. While electric cars have been in existent for a couple hundred years now, they have never been as consumer friendly as they are today (Electric Auto Association, 2016). Although electric cars still have limitations there are many more consumers willing to live with those limitations than ever before. Electric car sales are still at…

Electric cars have come a long way. From early days Prius to the prize-winning Tesla Model S, Mercedes-Benz, BMW, and Kia are now in the mix along with Nissan, Tesla and Chevrolet. Presently, with the development of technology and education, consumers are becoming smarter. Consumers can get a lot of information on the Internet, and everyone now considers cost efficiency and environmental issues before making the decision to buy an electric car. The market of electric cars has become very…

driverless cars help people,it can have up sides but down sides also to these auto-pilot vehicles. Here are reasons why these self driving transportation can be a not so good ideas. 1. Sometimes, there will be some human error that can injure someone or worse. Take, for instance, the case of the google's self-driving car that came to a crosswalk and did what it need to do: slow down to allow people to cross. But the driver panicked and hit the breaks. Luckily,no one was injured but the car was…

to pass through the legislation, then Germany would be looking towards an electric future and virtually no carbon monoxide emissions. This would not only cause the decrease in the carbon footprint but a major hit to the oil industries and even the car companies. Germany wouldn’t be the only country to implement this law. It is most likely that all of Europe would follow in the same footsteps towards a greener environment. A world with little to no carbon monoxide penetrating the ozone layer…
