In other words, self - driving vehicles would lead to fewer crashes,
so human drivers wouldn't have to spend as much on car insurance.
Not exact matches

Trade is a great
driver of productivity, and
so the risk of growing protectionism concerns me.15 More open trade with the United States and Mexico in the 1990s gave Canadian firms access to much bigger markets and therefore greater incentives to invest — in both physical and
human capital.16 Disrupting supply chains and reducing incentives to compete will not create more jobs and income in the long run.
Just as a car is not evil when it kills someone after spinning out of control of the

drivers are just regular
human beings.

driver more like a
human, allowing it to deviate from a rigid set of GPS navigational coordinates and to sense its own way through the desert.
Using this technique, the researchers detected patterns of
human climate
drivers (
so - called fingerprints) associated with the observed change just like detectives look for fingerprints to catch criminals.
Human minds can develop by expanding their repertoire into new modes, by increasing their competence within a mode or by gaining control
so that they can select the mode they want to «much as a
driver selects a gear».
The thinking behind the decision, explains Erik Coelingh, Volvo's senior technical leader for safety and
driver - support technologies, is that Autopilot will include
so many redundant and backup systems — duplicate cameras, radars, batteries, brakes, computers, steering actuators — that a
human driver will never need to intervene and thus can not be at fault.
Tuning AI
so it provides a challenge to the
human driver and avoids inexplicable behaviour while respecting the cars around it is one of the toughest things to do.
So if
humans can program machines to think in a meaningful way, they may just render
human drivers not merely optional but obsolete.
Regulations require a
driver, steering wheel, and foot pedals
so a
human can take over should anything go wrong.
At Ford's Michigan Proving Grounds, a fully loaded Ranger hits the brutal Silver Creek track with impacts
so severe robotic
drivers are used
so humans don't get injured.

driver's seat, you'll find adjustable pedals
so that any
human adult from the 5th to 95th height percentile can drive this rig.
Peopled by boxers, drunks, truck
drivers, murderers, bounty hunters, drifters traveling under assumed names, and men whose luck ran out a thousand miles ago, these stories feel hard - won from life, and if they are moody and stark,
so too are they filled with
human longing.
Think of all the deaths by drunk
drivers, murders, and
so on, does that mean all
humans should be killed?
Some of these climate
drivers result in warming and others lead to cooling, but when all the natural and
human - induced climate
drivers are stacked up and compared to one another, the accumulation of
human - released heat - trapping gases in the atmosphere is
so large that it has very likely swamped other climate
drivers over the past half century, leading to observed global warming.
However the
human driver of climate has grown since 1900
so 1961 or
so is about the time it starts to dominate over natural variations.
So there we have it: yet another relatively new study showing the sun is the main
driver and that
human cultures flourish in warm phases and fail when it turns cold.
KR,
so what you are saying to Ryland is... that % 100 of all warming is due to
human CO2 forcing which is offset by tiny amounts of natural cooling... in other words the main
driver if climate, using your reasoning, is offset by blips in natural variability... that again, naturally occurring blips cancel out that warm feeling we're all looking for.
Nevertheless, the idea that the sun, more
so perhaps than
humans, is the principal
driver of terrestrial climate has been gaining ground in recent years.
Quoting Dr. Morton: «Skeptics have used this continuing plateau to question whether CO2 is the primary
driver of climate,
so if temperatures begin to rise again, we can expect many claims of vindication by those who have concluded
human activity dominates.»
To be clear, insurance rates for
human drivers probably aren't going up
so much as they will go down for users of cars with more safety features (like self - driving).
So the potential outcome if it proves impossible to program driving etiquette into autonomous cars is that replacing
human drivers simply doesn't happen.
That frees to text and (not) drive, lets our GPS also be our
driver so we never get lost, and can be safer than letting
humans take the wheel.
I think next time there is a fatal accident with a
human - powered vehicle, we should suspend all
human - powered
drivers until we can work out why
humans suck
so bad at driving, and can take effective measures to prevent it ever happening again before they are given the ability to drive back.
The safety
driver wasn't looking,
so you can't avoid asking if
humans would have been able to see the pedestrian, this is a big change from previous when companies were trying to prove the tech is better than
human drivers, and that's not good for public confidence.
