The idea of a driverless car is not new. Now there are already cars on the road that can park themselves. But a truly self-driving car, one that can drive itself, is being tested by scientists and engineers. Self-driving cars have already been tested on public roads. These cars not only record images of the road, but their computerized maps view road signs, find alternative routes and see traffic lights even before they are seen by a person. By using radars and cameras, the cars can analyze information about their surroundings faster than a human can.

In some of the tests, the car leans the details of a road by driving on it several times, and when it is time to drive itself, it can identify when there are pedestrians crossing and then stops to let them pass by. Self-driving cars could make transport safer for all of us by eliminating the cause of most of today’s accidents.

In about a decade’s time, we may see………..

Vehicles in the near future, will be fuel efficient, zero emission, and use high tech electronics and software to assist drivers in a variety of ways. Vehicles will communicate with each other, with the road and with traffic signals. Autos and trucks of the future will use vision enhancement devices to help you navigate through bad weather, let you see around them, or warn you of a possible collision with a pedestrian or animal. They will also let you know if you are getting drowsy or straying from your lane.

In twenty years, cars of the future will be different than the automobiles of today, and so will the driving experience.

Vehicles will always cause green house gases.
