Well, all of this could be changing within the next few years, as technology develops and progresses new methods of transport are filtering through. One of these great modes of transports is by people using driverless vehicles. Heathrow airport in Greater london have of late proclaimed that they will be moving forwards with introducing a new cab that will be able to bring passengers along Terminal 5.
The system itself cost approximately £25 million to produce, the vehicle travels at up to 25miles per hour, it essentially uses computer laser guidance to keep it on track. The maker has indicated that the system could be exploited in city centres.
But what will this mean to the economy? I mean we already are in the thick of one of the largest economical downturns that we have ever witnessed, for certain introducing something like this will make thousands if not millions of people become out of work. I mean bus drivers, train drivers and taxi drivers would be an absolute thing of the past.
We know the technology is there to handle this on a big scale, I mean we have satellite navigation systems that know our real time location, we have intelligent car sensors. All that is left is satellite communication over the internet to allow the vehicles to drive away and I mean this is literally not too far off.
In the next few years you may not even have to have a driving licence.
