Rate the following essay on its writing, argument, and language skills:
Imagine, if you will, that you are driving to work one day. And while you are driving to work, you notice another car on the road coming towards you. What makes this car noticable is that the driver isn't steering the car. You become nervous, thinking that the person is going to cause an accident because they aren't driving their car. The car then saftely passes by you and is following the road as if the person was driving it. You have just seen a driverless car. As technology progresses, we begin to see more and more of these driverless cars. As of currently, however, these cars are not completely driverless, and still require some amount of human direction. It is projected that by 2020, we will have completely driverless cars. This is a good thing, seeing as driverless cars bring many more benefits than a human-manned automobile; driverless cars can lower the amount of gas that is consumed by the world, they are more accurate than a car with a driver, and they are overall safer than a human-headed car.

Firstly, using driverless cars as a public-transportation system would lower the total gas consumption of the world, which is a good thing because it will bring down the amount of pollution in our atmosphere. Driverless cars use half the fuel of today's taxis, and have far more flexible hours than a public bus does. Driverless cars would also be safer to use than a bus, because you will have virtually no chance of being attacked by a stranger.

Secondly, driverless cars provide more accuracy and efficency than a car with a driver. Google's driverless cars have driven more than half a million miles and haven't crashed, and is with human direction. Without human direction, there would be virtually no chance of an accident. Driverless cars use sensors, GPS techonolgy, cameras, and radars to function. The most important sensor in these cars is a spinning sensor on the roof called LIDAR. LIDAR uses laser beams to create a 3-D model of the car and it's surroundings. The combination of these is how the driverless car mimics human driving skills. The car will pay attention to its surroundings better than humans will because that is its only task.

Thirdly, driverless cars are all around safer than cars with drivers. Driverless cars have been around for seven years and there hasn't been an accident involving one. Can we say the same about humans? The answer is no, we can't. A driverless car's only task is to focus on the road and its surroundings. A driverless car cannot become distracted because it is not programmed to do so. A human will become distracted; it's how we are wired. Humans do not always pay attention to their surrounds while driving; they will be thinking of something that happen during the day or something similar to that. A driverless car cannot become intoxicated either, and would be safer for someone who is intoxicated or under the influence to get home. You can also install fail-safe safety feautures into a driverless car that will get the car out of a dangerous situation. You can install fail-safe features that will dectect an accident miles before it happens and avoid that accident. Humans are not equipped with these features.

Some will say that driverless cars will not be usefull because if there is an accident, there is no way to tell who is at fault- the driver or the manufacturer. This is not true however, as if an accident is simply investigated then it can become clear who is at fault. If the driver does something like become intoxicated and wrecks their car, it is their fault. If many cars are in accidents because of the same technological failure, then it is the manufacturer's fault. If one car unfortunately glitches and crashes, then it is that singular car's fault. Blaming the manufacturer for a situation like that would be like blaming a driver when they are in an accident because the weather suddenly became horrid.

In conclusion, driverless cars are the way of the future. They are more enviornmentally friendly than their driver counterparts. They are more efficient and acurate. They are even more safer than cars with a driver. Driverless cars are here to stay.
