There is a lot of talk about self-driving cars these days. And with good reason, they could completely revolutionize the way we get around. But when are they actually going to be available?
According to some experts, self-driving cars will be widely available by 2022.
Of course, there are still some challenges that need to be overcome. For example, the cost of self-driving cars needs to come down before they can become mainstream. But there’s no doubt that they’re coming soon.
One of the advantages of self-driving cars is that they’re automatic, which means they don’t need to be driven by humans.
When you want to go somewhere, you just tell the car where to go, and it will take you there automatically.
And it can even do this faster than a human can drive because its reaction times are much faster. The passenger also has complete control over where the car goes.
Automatic Cars are already on the road, although they only require a driver's assistance when certain conditions demand it.
However, several problems need to be solved before these cars become mainstream; for example, self-driving cars still struggle with some weather conditions (like heavy rain), which is obviously an issue if they are to take over our roads entirely.
10 Benefits of Self Driving Cars
1. They’re much more efficient than humans, which means they use less fuel and create less pollution.
2. They can take you to your destination faster than a human can drive.
3. Self Driving Cars can navigate through heavy traffic and long journeys with ease.
4. You can relax and enjoy your journey, without having to worry about traffic or road conditions.
5. They can be used in any situation and need little human input.
6. They don’t experience road rage, which means they won’t get angry and drive dangerously as a result of other drivers on the road!
7. Self-driving cars are great for those who are unable to drive.
8. They can be used by multiple people at once, which makes them ideal for carpools or airport shuttles.
9. You don’t need to learn how to drive them; the technology will take care of this for you.
10. Self-driving cars are better drivers than humans, making them less likely to get into accidents.
Disadvantages of Self Driving Cars
1. They’re still in development, which means they have some issues that need to be worked out.
2. The technology is expensive, which means the cars are too at the moment.
3. They struggle with certain weather conditions, like heavy rain.
4. There is a possibility that they could be hacked, putting the passengers at risk.
5. They could take away jobs from human drivers, who may lose their livelihood as a result.
6. They’re not perfect yet, which means there is always the potential for error.
7. They could lead to more congestion on the roads, as people will no longer need to park their cars.
8. They may be used irresponsibly by children or problematic people like drunks.
9. Self-driving cars could increase the number of traffic jams, as they will likely follow each other more closely than humans do currently (because this is safer for them).
10. It’s possible that human drivers could feel intimidated by self-driving cars and take more risks on the road.
Different countries around the world have started allowing self-driving cars around popular cities. When it comes to Nepal, due to many different reasons self driving is prohibited.
