Robotic cars provide many benefits:
- Fewer accidents
- Lower mobility costs (gas consumption, vehicle insurance)
- Road networks would be used more efficiently
- Reduces the need for parking spaces
- Decreased cost for shipping
- New businesses can develop (i.e. a driverless taxi service)
 |
Businesses that would benefit greatly from this technology include:
· Zipcar. A person will be able to simply
call Zipcar and the vehicle will be able to use GPS technology to drive itself
to the customer’s location.
·
Military. This technology can be
implemented for use in a military environment, eliminating the risk that is
entailed with the use of a human driver, i.e. death.
·
Trucking companies. Upon perfection of
this technology, perhaps the need for a human driver will become unnecessary
and trucking shipments will be able to drive themselves to their predetermined
destinations.
·
Pizza companies, grocery stores, taxi companies and limo
services are also some possible future benefactors of this technological
advancement.
