Ok, so explain to me what will you do in an emergency situation?
Also, how are you gonna be alerted when a component breaks out??? Since AVs will probably more complex to do the said emergency stop, dont you think that's tough-provoking enough???
How bout this, join me in this thread and discuss cons and pros in here
Have you ever flown in a modern airplane?
You can fly halfway around the world in a jet that can tell you every minute detail of what’s wrong with the jet.
We’ve flown to the moon and built space stations with the same technology.
It’s really not that hard. The way it works is critical systems have a redundant system. If something fails, it compares the questionable data with the data from an independent system. If it doesn’t match, it throws a fault. Then you drive it manually. This is how air and spacecraft work. On a car the risk is much less because you’re not flying.
Its crazy to me so many people are against this transition, if you look at how many people have been killed or injured by motorized cars, its ALOT, but no one is suggesting we go back to horse and buggy, basically the positives outweigh the negatives, and all the deaths are 'acceptable loss'
Should we ban video games due to the rise of toxicity in the gaming community too?
I dont know anything that, but my basic point was, if people are concerned with safety relating to SD cars, and that is the main reason they do not want to see them, how can they accept and tolerate motor cars (100s of 1000s have been killed due to motor cars over the years), but in general, most people agree, the positives of motor cars outweighs the negatives.
I don't see it either unless it's done in a very controlled environment.
If a town was built from scratch with self-driving cars in mind, I could see it working. They would need the road system designed specifically for self driving cars and have systems/physical barriers that prevent things that aren't self-driving cars from entering the road and causing problems.
