Current Events Quiz #2.2
Short Answer:
1. $1,840.
2. They must get a clean bill of health from an FAA-approved doctor.
3. Leander - $454m, Bastrop - $88.5m, Lake Travis - $253m, Eanes - same as Lake Travis, AISD -$1.05b.
4. 50,000 jobs.
5. You could find urban legends, memes, short stories, blog features, and more on creepypasta.com.
Long Response:
1. The story was about a blind person talking about self-driving cars. Riding in one was a huge step for the writer, because they're legally blind. When you have a disability like this, there are things that you simply can't do, but with the self-driving car, "driving" is possible.
2. Many people could benefit from the self-driving car, like people with disabilities. The story mentioned blind people, but people with physical disabilities could also benefit from this. People with no arms, or legs, or maybe they're paralyzed.
3. I think I would feel safe with machine driven cars. In the story, the writer mentioned that machines don't feel emotions. They can't get drunk, or high, or angry which would cause them to drive unsafely. With humans, so many deaths happen on the roads because of these problems that machines will never suffer from.
4. Once driverless cars are perfected, I think super fast trains will come next. I know prototypes have already been developed, but it's not accessible to the public. These trains would look like a subway train, but go so fast it barely takes any time at all to go places. It'd be very useful in the modern world.
