The advantage of driverless cars and lorries
  •  Can let you sleep

We already know that driverless car or lorry do not need you to drive the vehicle as it will move through the instruction of the computer. So, without the need of driver, vehicles can be mini-leisure rooms. The vehicles will have more space and no need for everyone to face forwards. You just need to be more relaxed and enjoy your journey.

  •   Reduces the number of crash

In USA, over 80% of car crashes are caused by driver error. But with this driverless vehicles, there would be no bad drivers and less mistakes on the roads. Drunk and drugged drivers would also be a thing for the past
.
  •  Greater efficiency

It can reduced congestion. Automated driving leads to fewer accidents. With this fewer accident, we can reduced the congestion. This is because, when an accident occur, we already know that the lane will be blocked, and the time to remove the affected vehicle also takes time. So with this innovation, road congestion can be reduced by 25%.

  •  Increased lane capacity

The ability to operate at higher speeds and reduced space between vehicles, it can lead to 500% greater lane capacity, vehicles per lane per hour. With the use of cruise control, we can automatically adjusts vehicle speed for it to maintain a safe distance between cars and trucks.

  • Fuel efficiency


The use of fuel in order for the vehicles to works can be reduces as the innovation can create vehicles that will not use the fuel to make it function plus nowadays the trucking industry consumes a very large amount of gas. Automated vehicles can use fuel more efficiently by platooning, the adaptive cruise control function that allows trucks to stay away from each other and can reduce speed. Manufacturers could also design electric or hydrogen powered trucks or vehicles.
