The lecture and the reading are both about the efficiency of computerized smart cars. The author of the passage believes that this type of cars can make our commute safer, quicker and cheaper. The lecturer casts doubt on claims made by the author. She thinks the modern car is not effective.
First of all, the author argues that in terms of safety, the smart car is convincing. According to the article, there will be the advance device on it, which can help to indicate other cars' as well as obstacles' location and go around from crash. This specific argument is challenged by the professor. She claims that even with cutting-edge cars will occur an accident. Added to this, she points out that sensors of the car will occasionally break.
Secondly, the writer suggests that smart cars can avoid traffic congestions. It is said in the reading that these automobiles can be controlled in remote without accidents, even at high speed. The lecturer, however, rebuts this by mentioning the history of driving convenience. She elaborates on this by bringing up the point that since the amount of cars increases, it is difficult to prevent traffic and climbing up the speed.
Finally, the author posits that it can be less expensive than traditional cars. The article mentions that as smart cars are programmed to be driven directly without fails, drivers do not waste their money to reparation. On the contrary, the speaker's position is defending the point that devices of this automobile are extremely expensive. She notes that sensor which shows the distance between cars costs very expensive. Furthermore, as long as smart car breaks, much money will spend to repair it.
