We strongly believe that self-driving cars are the future for our transportation. It benefits us in many ways, a few being it saves money, its safer, and it saves time.  
Despite people say there will be more accident with driver-less cars, we disagree because computers use complicated algorithms which can have control of the car to prevent accidents.

A chauffeur is someone you can call and they drive for you, but there won't be anyone. According to newsela it states,"  Instead of spending thousands of dollars on a new car, the tech-savvy consumer of the future will open an app ... and call for his or her very own driverless chauffeur."  To elaborate people won't have to spend a lot of money on buying a new car or buying gas.]]> 2018-02-28 20:43:51 UTC https://padlet.com/8wchu9421/800bpe1y52qc/wish/236669414 Body Paragraph 2 8vhoa235 https://padlet.com/8wchu9421/800bpe1y52qc/wish/237188812 To reinforce, self-driving cars can save a lot of time and help lots of people that can't drive. According to the article, "Top 20 Pros and Cons Associated With Self-Driving Cars", it states that since computers are doing most of the work in driving, so if you have work to get done, you are able to finish it on your way to work without driving. In addition, it can help handicapped people who rely on transportation to work. According to the same article, it states that "Disabled individuals, who have to rely on public transportation or assistance from others to get around can finally do so. This evidence suggests that self-driving cars can help benefit freedom and enhance mobility. ]]> 2018-03-01 21:02:30 UTC https://padlet.com/8wchu9421/800bpe1y52qc/wish/237188812 Body paragraph 3 8jtra1421 https://padlet.com/8wchu9421/800bpe1y52qc/wish/237189302 In addition, self driving cars will cause less accidents. According to "Newsela | Pro/Con: Are Self-Driving cars the future of transportation?", it states that "Having a nation of commuters use these vehicles, they claim, will reduce traffic congestion, improve highway safety and make even the far suburbs more convenient places to live." and also in the article "Top 20 Pros and Cons associated with self driving cars", it explains, "Drunk driving incidents should decrease, because there's no designated driver needed when the car drives itself. " These two pieces of text suggest that incident rates will go down since most accidents are caused by the driver, and if the car is in control, someone like a drunk driver can't cause as many accidents.]]> 2018-03-01 21:03:47 UTC https://padlet.com/8wchu9421/800bpe1y52qc/wish/237189302 Counter 8vhoa235 https://padlet.com/8wchu9421/800bpe1y52qc/wish/237189767 Although our opponents might say that self driving cars can effect our safety. We disagree because in the future the technology should be safe and advanced enough so we do not have to risk anything when ordering a self driving car. Another thing they might say is that it will be costly. We agree and disagree, if you order a driver-less car then you do not have to worry about your safety and you will be at you destination much faster. So if you really think about it then it is worth it, at least to our degree.]]> 2018-03-01 21:05:00 UTC https://padlet.com/8wchu9421/800bpe1y52qc/wish/237189767 8wchu9421 https://padlet.com/8wchu9421/800bpe1y52qc/wish/237191277 2018-03-01 21:08:53 UTC https://padlet.com/8wchu9421/800bpe1y52qc/wish/237191277 8wchu9421 https://padlet.com/8wchu9421/800bpe1y52qc/wish/237191844 2018-03-01 21:10:22 UTC https://padlet.com/8wchu9421/800bpe1y52qc/wish/237191844 Conclusion 8wchu9421 https://padlet.com/8wchu9421/800bpe1y52qc/wish/237199169 To conclude, the question whether self-driving cars are the future of transportation is still very debatable. After reviewing informational sources, we believe that self-driving cars can help benefit that future. The reasons that support our claim are it's going to be cheaper, saves a lot of time/convenience, and is safer. Our analysis of this issue has left us with little doubt that self-driving cars are our future of transportation. ]]> 2018-03-01 21:29:11 UTC https://padlet.com/8wchu9421/800bpe1y52qc/wish/237199169
