                  On the other hand, they say that it can cause an economic problem, because it is

                  going to eliminate the work of many people who are now employed as drivers and
                  that it is going to affect economically both the insurance and health industries that

                  now take care of car accidents.


                  Other  people  think  that  the  percentage  of  vehicles  circulating  within  cities  will
                  decrease  and  the  mobility  in  them  is  going  to  change,  because  being  driven  by

                  machines  is  not  going  to  require  traffic  lights  at  intersections  and  circulation  is

                  going to be more fluid. Transportation is going to be more efficient and sustainable
                  and new jobs and companies are going to turn up and are going to deal with the

                  management and bill of driverless trips. Therefore, new policies should be created
                  for this new transportation system that equitably distributes the benefits that it will

                  produce.


                  The article ends with the opinion of experts who state that it´s going to be easy for

                  people to accept the use of these vehicles, it is going to be enough for them, to get
                  on and try it a few times.



                  4) Finally, answer the following questions:
                  4.1)  what is your opinion about the article?

                  I think it is a great thing to have driverless vehicles; thinking about Mexico City, my

                  opinion  is  that  the  vehicle  mobility  would  improve  a  lot,  the  number  of  vehicles
                  circulating would decrease and probably, as they say, so many traffic lights would

                  not be required. The trips would take less time and there would be fewer accidents.
                  One could pay attention to the view.


                  I think there are many politic and economic interests that would be affected and it

                  could be difficult. It is enough to see the problems that Uber and Cabify have had

                  with the associations of taxi drivers. I would personally prefer it and if new jobs are
                  to be created, much better.
