With the discussions of even though technology can be further advanced, is is fully necessary, there are many questions posed from that statement. New technology can be highly beneficial, from helping people’s health to increasing the safety and efficiency of transportation. Even with the social stigmas that new technology was given, it is the same case for technology in the past that was considered new, like the train, where people were afraid of their bodies melting from going at such fast speeds. With all the advancements in technology there are both positive and negative affects to them including technology in transportation, medicine, and social media.

FIRST CATEGORY: TECHNOLOGY IN TRANSPORTATION
Benefit: The increase in technology in transportation has positive affects on society. One of the innovations in transportation technology is the autonomous vehicles. Currently they are still being perfected but there is autopilot in several cars already. The future of transportation is not far with completely driverless cars. A positive affect that autonomous cars have on society is that they will “increases in a broad scope of users – elderly people, persons with disabilities” and help those people have easier accessibility to transportation. (potential economic cars) It “will dramatically reduce the number of car crashes caused by human error, which is responsible for over 90% of car accidents” and keep people safer and more protected. (potential economic cars) With self-driving cars, society will be heavily impacted and will also cause new businesses and jobs to be created. Because new needs will be created and transportation will become more efficient, there will be new jobs and easier access to them if someone does not live within close proximity to the occupation. With the accuracy of the autonomous cars on the road and the prevention of accidents, traffic will reduce and the time to get to places will also reduce. Because accidents will occur less often, that in turn will lead to billions of dollars saves in health care costs and insurance plans costs. The effects of driverless vehicles is very wide reaching and will dramatically change the way people live their lives and their new demands.
Consequences: Unfortunately there are negative affects of technological advancements in transportation. Autopilot does have downsides currently because it is still in a
