自主車(chē)將依靠先進(jìn)的MCU更安全的道路和降低擁塞

　　喜歡或不愿意，汽車(chē)工業(yè)正在無(wú)情地接近自主車(chē)輛，原因不是讓司機(jī)的生活更簡(jiǎn)單，而是試圖消除碰撞的道路上。隨著試驗(yàn)已經(jīng)開(kāi)始，在自治道路上的速度顛簸不太可能是技術(shù)性的，更可能是訴訟。然而，整個(gè)行業(yè)致力于使交通運(yùn)輸?shù)男录o(jì)元。

　　在應(yīng)對(duì)新興但各種越來(lái)越復(fù)雜的先進(jìn)駕駛輔助系統(tǒng)（ADAS）日益增長(zhǎng)的需求正在由汽車(chē)制造商提供，有集成的解決方案，現(xiàn)有的和/或正在開(kāi)發(fā)一個(gè)同樣復(fù)雜的范圍。這些設(shè)備將是至關(guān)重要的支持這一步的變化，特別是在提供安全，安全和支持相結(jié)合，將需要真正的自主車(chē)輛。許多這些元素現(xiàn)在正在集成在一個(gè)單一的設(shè)備，部分是為了滿(mǎn)足商業(yè)要求，并在一定程度上符合國(guó)際公認(rèn)的安全標(biāo)準(zhǔn)。

　　Ability meets will

　　The road to full autonomy is long， winding and laden with unsigned forks in the road; it’s going to take a while to get there. However， that doesn’t mean it won’t happen， in fact it’s almost a certainty because the momentum behind it is equaled by the anticipation of its benefits. Autonomous cars ‘could’ reduce road traffic incidents to zero， and give an aging population continued independence long after the ability to control a vehicle has left the driver. Many， if not all， insurance companies are already conducting extensive research into how this will impact the insurance industry. Currently， the driver is deemed liable when in control of a car whether they are using an ADAS feature （such as adaptive cruise control or automatic emergency braking） or not. If an insurer wants to prove otherwise they must pursue that claim with the car manufacturer. However， once full autonomy arrives it is likely that the driver will， under certain conditions， be legally allowed to be distracted while driving （to use a phone， or browse the internet， for example）。 This has raised many questions in the insurance industry.
