Rockall's Argumentative Analysis

In order for self-driving cars to work to their maximum capability, they require the roads to be filled with mainly self-driving cars because these cars can relay information to each other. Brombacher, states in his article, “Reliability of Self-driving Cars. An Interesting Challenge!" that self-driving cars won’t work because the public will not cooperate. He states that even though the self-driving car is safe, due to the large amount of traffic that cannot be controlled now, there is no possibility that adding self-driving cars to the mix would help. Brombacher disagrees with Hosansky and Klinkhammer’s claim because Brombacher believes that the public doesn’t like change which will prevent the success of self-driving cars because self-driving …show more content…
Considering the fact that there is approximately seven billion people in the world, the amount of handicapped people is vast. In “Without Planning, Driverless Cars Could Be An Accident Waiting To Happen,” by Wil Rockall, he states that self-driving cars use vehicle to vehicle communication resulting in more efficiency and better management of speed. Rockall’s main argument is that it would be very beneficial to use self-driving cars because elderly people and disabled people would be able to travel to places. Rockall provides information on how self-driving cars would be beneficial to people who are unable to drive as well as aid the people who can drive to reduce human error in accidents which is ninety percent. Self-driving cars would not only reduce accidents, but also allow people who thought they couldn’t travel be able to be motile once …show more content…
In “Avoiding Crashes with Self-Driving Cars,” by Samuel Minick, he proclaims that self-driving cars can prevent the car from drifting if the driver is distracted or tired. He states how the car can provide an extra set of eyes whether it’s parking or checking for a blind spot. Minick’s main argument is that self-driving cars can do multiple things, sometimes things that humans can’t even do. Minick explains the benefits to having self-driving cars and the things that it is capable of. He also clearly states that the cost can be an issue with the new sensors and technology; however, it reduces the number of accidents greatly and allows the public to travel independently. Minick agrees with McFarland and Rockall’s claims because Minick believes that self-driving cars are able to do many things: Parallel Park, be an extra set of eyes and check for other vehicles approaching. They would also all agree on the fact that even though the self-driving car technology is known to be extremely expensive, it would allow people to travel and ensure less
