Title: Will Autonomous Commercial Vehicles Curb Truck Accidents?
1Will Autonomous Commercial Vehicles Curb Truck
Accidents?
2- Autonomous commercial semis are hitting test
roads across America, with Google testing their
delivery trucks in Georgia while Tesla is taking
their tractor trailers to California freeways.
With an accident involving an autonomous Uber car
that killed a pedestrian in Tempe forcing the
ridesharing giant to halt testing, all wonder
just how likely truck accidents will diminish
over time when semis become driverless. Or, will
your Salt Lake City truck accidents attorney will
still be fighting claims in 50 years?
3Automation Isnt Close To Perfection
- Theres only so many ways engineers can mimic
human interactivity. Its easy to program cars
and trucks to spot obstructions, brake when other
vehicles come within a certain proximity and even
change lanes. Problem is, many components of
driving cant be replaced by human beings, such
as knowing when its prudent to pass other cars
and how hard to apply brakes when obstructions
quickly enter their field of vision.
4Now, youll admit that many other driver
reactions have been perfected, such as speed
adjustment and automatically turning on wipers
when moisture is detected. Wed still be remiss
to assume that autonomous transportation is
perfected, or even close. Besides, how could
autonomous vehicles avoid an oncoming vehicle
traveling at high speeds? They cant, and
probably wont
5Should Autonomy Stop Evolving?
The problem with any computer-driven innovation
involves the very same thing you all experience
every day hacking, viruses, and internal errors.
What happens when semis go fully automated, and
their software malfunctions while hauling 20,000
pounds of merchandise? Itll be someones head.
6Nobody wants autonomous transportation to cease
evolvement. Its important that you not get ahead
of ourselves, according to truck accident
attorney in Salt Lake City, and assume that
vehicles with onboard technology rivaling the
DeLorean from Back to the Future will not need
human beings behind the wheel. Theres so much
that needs to be improved on semis that rely on
proprietary software technology, and plenty of
testing that needs to be done to make sure all
angles are covered.
7Whats Next?
Google and Tesla are spearheading the development
of autonomous semis, with competitors quickly
lining up to challenge their price points.
Deployment is still several years away, which one
would assume will begin with todays biggest
trucking need package transportation.
