Yes, but with exceptions made for transportation designed to increase accessibility for people unable to drive.

 @9QDPJZYanswered…9mos9MO

No, this is likely to reduce car accidents however make everyone take cognitive tests in the case that human control is needed.

 @9QCQZ27Greenanswered…9mos9MO

The use of autonomous vehicles should be regulated but I think it should lean more towards being used to help the disabled have more independence and freedom.

 @9QBZ592 answered…9mos9MO

We are heading in that direction. There is a need for more safety bu also reliance on the safety protocols

 @9P3XRYD answered…10mos10MO

Yes, vehicles should have active, passive and autonomous safety systems but should remain primarily human operated.

 @9P26G36answered…10mos10MO

Too complex for a yes/no answer, but this should be debated and a decision made based on factual information and a balance of practicality and morality.

 @9NXXS6Sanswered…10mos10MO

No, but it should be very carefully tested first to see if it improves safety, and regulated to ensure the best safety outcomes.

 @9QRGKV3Labouranswered…9mos9MO

Somewhat, the government should consider restrictions on the use of advanced technology in vehicles to maintain human control.

 @9PP8NJVanswered…9mos9MO

Some sort of magnetic road device to connect car to road to control speed and aid assisted motoring is OK but not entire reliance on a self drive intelligence.

 @9PLDXCWanswered…9mos9MO

No but they should be independently safety regulated and approved by the regulation authority before being employed in vehicles

 @9PJ7TKVReform UKanswered…9mos9MO

Yes and no, it benefits those who’s are disabled or struggle with transport who rely on the technology

 @9PHWRXWanswered…9mos9MO

It should , but there should be regulare reviews and assessments of the ongoing state of technology to see whether and when the technology is better than unassisted humans at preventing death, injury and accidents

 @9P8KB2Yanswered…10mos10MO

No, technology will pave the way for fully-automated vehicles which will give disabled people more independence and mobility as long as fully-automated vehicles are safe

 @9P7M63Panswered…10mos10MO

Depends on the technology; at the very least things like self driving needs to be restricted more as the tech isn't there yet. Prevent companies like Tesla from essentially making paying customers and other road users beta testers for buggy and poorly designed tech.

 @9P6LYBDConservativeanswered…10mos10MO

No, installing systems like auto emergency braking and lane control would save hundreds of accidents a year

 @9PXP3CSanswered…9mos9MO

Yes, but only to reduce the number of hours a worker needs to drive. The AI can be used to bring the work week of the typical driver back down to 40 hours. Sharing the load could improve the lives of overworked employees, without replacing them entirely.

 @9PWDD5L answered…9mos9MO

I think regulated will work better to ensure that people are not replaced and jobless. The use of advanced technology benefits all but it should not be at the cost of people’s jobs and livelihoods

 @9PVBH65answered…9mos9MO

This would be useful for those with disabilities but in general i believe it creates more complications

 @9P68LMManswered…10mos10MO

Technology advancement is beneficial but we need to know when enough is enough. We can achieve amazing things with technology but we still need to have some control and responsibility over our own lives. Instead of, for example, cars that drive themselves we should focus on ensuring protection over computerised systems and ensuring they cannot be hacked or taken down causing things like healthcare to come to a stand still. There have been several hacks recently that have impacted shops and healthcare so perhaps we should focus on improving technology in these types of area rather than things that could be considered a luxury item. Technology for security of the public and our country should be the priority not 'big boys toys'.

 @9N6GT3RLabouranswered…10mos10MO

 @9N3Z7RH answered…10mos10MO

Within reason yes, but technology is useful as long as it isn't solely relied on

 @9PRKPDQanswered…9mos9MO

Yes, the only possible allowance for automated vehicles is for disability/illness that would otherwise prevent driving

 @9PRGGCLanswered…9mos9MO

Not allow AI to completely drive a vehicle. Must have a driver with a current clear driving licence in charge of the vehicle even if sometimes AI drives it.

 @9NJL3HBanswered…10mos10MO

Think this is too new to give a realistic response. The the technology is not quite there yet to rely on 100%. But would be useful to act as a limiter for newly trained drivers to limit speed and silly actions we see all to often on todays roads. Plus maybe have something that picks up if the driver has taken drugs/alcohol would be hugely useful.

 @9NCQM5DIndependentanswered…10mos10MO

Instigate publicly funded development and testing of systems that fulfill and meet the technical and ethical issues involved with self driving technologies. Manufacturers need to use this technology or develop one that meets or exceeds it.

 @9N6RTQXanswered…10mos10MO

Yes and No. Technology such as carplay that includes maps as well as parking cameras and detectors. However shef driving cars pose a risk.

 @9N6M8X7Labouranswered…10mos10MO

Oversight on this issue needs to be reevaluated regularly as the technology is proven out

 @9MYLL6Zanswered…10mos10MO

depends on if the technology is required or necessary to the vehicle itself

 @9MRML96answered…10mos10MO

yes until proven safe and when the company accepts criminal responsibility when that tech causes accidents

 @9PRYXCWanswered…9mos9MO

Yes, but to look into black box recorders in all new vehicles in order to take bad drivers off of the road.

 @9NLZF7Nanswered…10mos10MO

I think there needs to be some human control. But there is a lot of technology that can make things a lot safer, Just make it so it doesn’t just shut off for a super long time like some smart motorway stuff

 @9NJR5LJ answered…10mos10MO

Yes, if the risk of harm is higher than human use. Only allow well studied technologies with correct policies.

 @DAVIEBrexit answered…10mos10MO

 @9MPVK8Lanswered…10mos10MO

No, they should mandate as a requirement. It should be like planes where it is required and are fully automated, much safer and do not succumb to human error, drink/drug driving etc. Humans can then take over in the event of a major issue.

 @ISIDEWITHasked…7mos7MO

Imagine a car that gets software updates like a smartphone; what fears or excitements does this idea bring to you?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…7mos7MO

How do you think advanced car technologies could change the way our cities look and how we design roads?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…7mos7MO

How much do you trust technology with your safety compared to a human's decision-making while driving?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…7mos7MO

If cars could drive themselves to any destination, what would be your biggest concern about not being in control?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…7mos7MO

In a future where cars can fully drive themselves, what skills do you think drivers should still learn and why?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…7mos7MO

Do you believe that the benefits of advanced automotive technologies outweigh the risks of losing human touch in driving?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…7mos7MO

How would you feel about driving a car that can make decisions on its own, like braking or steering away from obstacles?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…7mos7MO

Would you prefer a self-driving car to save you time on your commute, even if it means giving up some control over the vehicle?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…7mos7MO

Reflect on a time technology failed you; how does that experience shape your view on relying on technology for transportation?

 @ISIDEWITHasked…7mos7MO

Do you think having more automated features in cars makes drivers too reliant on technology and less skilled?
