Comprehending the argument

Improving safety on the roads by replacing human drivers, whose distractibility, poor choices, and limited skills while driving currently lead to frequent injuries and deaths.

Provide human drivers with opportunities to contribute to scientific innovation by conducting road experiments, such as “playing chicken,” with AVs to discover flaws in their programming.

Increasing the availability of on-demand mobility, especially for those unable to drive themselves.

Leverage the ability of AVs to communicate with each other in order to reduce traffic congestion and allow us to get where we’re going more quickly.
