Amitai Bin-Nun favors the idea of driverless cars being a good idea in the essay “Are Driverless Cars A Good Idea,” whereas Ashley Nunes opposes it. According to Bin-Nun, self-driving cars will benefit the environment by reducing traffic congestion, driving more efficiently, and lowering pollutants. Persons who are disabled or older people who are unable to drive safely may benefit from self-driving automobiles. Others who do not know how to drive may benefit from it as well. Bin-Nun claims that it can make roads safer, claiming that more than 36,500 people died on them in 2018. Nunes opposes the concept of self-driving automobiles because machines are imperfect and have weaknesses. They, like people, are capable of making mistakes.She detailed how a 40-year-old man was murdered by a self-driving car after colliding with a truck. She argues that we should not put our reliance in our automobiles to drive themselves throughout our lives.
Do you believe that self-driving cars will become a reality?I believe that having a driverless automobile would be beneficial since I am familiar with numerous scenarios where individuals are driving home late at night and become weary, and they can sleep behind the wheel. It has the potential to make roadways safer and prevent accidents. However, I am aware that machines are flawed and that we should not rely on them for control. I believe that driverless cars are a fantastic concept if they can develop automobiles that are safe and make no mistakes.
Dear Fernando,
This is a very interesting topic because there is pros and cons to having driverless vehicles in our daily life. For example, driverless cars do reduce the errors that many humans do on a daily. Driverless vehicles also monitor the speed and travel and keep a safe distance, so I do agree with many of your points such as “self-driving cars will benefit the environment by reducing traffic congestion, driving more efficiently, and lowering pollutants.” But there are downsides to this, such as these types of vehicles costing substantially more than we’re used to. Also being very dependent on GPS since it’s a driverless car can be an issue because GPSs aren’t 100 percent accurate.
So as you can see I don’t really know how this will affect us moving forward with our technology as it advances and how we will use it more in the future. But hopefully, we can come up with different solutions to resolve these issues. I enjoyed your views about this topic as it’s very important to talk about 🙂
Dear fernando:
I am intrigued by your post ¨Driverless Cars,¨ because it is unbelievable to think that technology has grown so much to the point where cars can drive on their own. Self driving cars are the future they have helped many people and are good for the world.
One sentence you wrote that stands out for me is ¨Persons who are disabled or older people who are unable to drive safely may benefit from self-driving automobiles.¨ I think this is important because many older folks may have trouble driving but with this technology it can definitely help. This new system is going to be everywhere and people are going to want it.
Thanks for your writing. I look forward to seeing what you write next, because future technology will change the world. Nw things will continue to be made and our generation will experience this great age of technology.

Dear Fernando:
The talk about the possibility of driverless cars is very interesting.
One sentence that stands out that can be positive that there will be driverless cars is “I believe that having a driverless automobile would be beneficial since I am familiar with numerous scenarios where individuals are driving home late at night and become weary. I believe that driverless cars will come eventually in the future, even tho they have got a lot of hate but as it said it can be a good thing for people. I say this because all technological advances have had setbacks and criticism, however, they can have a breakthrough and in the future, it can be a positive for people who need to get around but cannot drive since they can be driverless. There can be a possibility that they can come about and everyone has them an example is how they replaced horses to get around and they got replaced by cars. I believe that gas-powered cars will be replaced in the future by driverless technology.
Thanks for your writing. I look forward to seeing what you write next becuase its very interesting.
Dear Fernando:
I am happy that you brought up the possibility of driverless cars.
I believe that driverless cars would come eventually in the future, despite the current cons of this feature. I say this because in general, all technological advances has or had setbacks and criticism, however eventually would come to mass usage and outdate their predecessors. Take the examples of horses and oil lamps – their were the peak of technology during their times, however they have been largely replaced by automobiles and electricity despite initial protests and disbelief. I think drivers – like horses and oil lamps, will eventually be replaced with driverless technology. I predict that there would likely be a large handful of drivers left, however they would be in the minority.
DEAR FERNANDO :
Your post, “Driverless Cars?” is quite interesting. I like the fact that it poses two notable arguments from Mr. Bin-Nun & Mrs. Nunes. Although driverless cars can benefit people who are disabled and the environment, their flaws will ultimately outweigh these benefits. I would imagine that any person would feel more secure if they had full control over their vehicle, which is why trusting a computer that can malfunction, maybe even turn on you and attempt to purposely kill you, is foolish.
Allowing driverless cars to take control of the streets may be the worst thing that could happen. The possibility of them being hacked and causing utter chaos is reality that I hope never occurs, which is why I believe that these driverless vehicles may pose a bigger threat than a person who is falling asleep behind a wheel.
I totally agree with the sentence, “ driverless cars are a fantastic concept if they can develop automobiles that are safe and make no mistakes.”. The development of these safe and no mistake driverless vehicles is possible and I’m open-minded to this possibility, but this must first be proven.
Thanks for your writing. I look forward to seeing what you write next because the topic you choose was interesting to me.
