　　Soon after, driverless cars will bring us a lot of benefits, the first is likely to improve road safety. Traffic accidents will not disappear, but it certainly is a driverless car will do better than humans. Only with the United States, for example, each year, about 30,000 people die of traffic accidents caused by human. Driverless cars will also increase production efficiency – people will be able to handle the daily work in the car, and even let you doze off.

　　However, not everyone looks forward to the coming of age of unmanned. A potential victim of interest is the local government. 53 year old Yu hongxin Oriental Internet breakout

　　Once the right to drive is taken over by the car, the driver will not be illegal parking or speeding, running red lights, drunk driving, even if it did, you can blame car drivers are also. This means that the Government could not be punished. According to the Brookings Institution (Brookings Institution) report, which will lead to the city's budget crunch.

　　Previously, local governments can expect to catch those who collect cash. But once let driverless cars into every household, the Government will lose even more in the long run interests.

　　Although they are not statistics, shows how many United States drivers were fined for traffic violations, but the report said had hundreds of millions of dollars of revenue arising from the traffic violation. In Los Angeles, for example, in 2014, just received a $ 161 million from notices of parking violation. United States 20 cities in California will yield $ 40 million a year from the trailer, the Government together with the towing company split.

　　More importantly, many theories consider the driverless cars will lead to fewer and fewer people to buy cars, if this theory was set up on auto registration fees, the Government revenue will decline.

　　The report indicates that, for those who don't like it or can't afford fines and other fees of people, this is a good news. However, these financial income to be used for transportation infrastructure and maintenance, public schools, the judiciary salaries, domestic violence advocacy, and many other public services. And, even if it is a driverless car, keeping formation need funds to maintain the road.

　　However, self-driving cars also brought good news to the financial position of the Government. Car accident is usually very costly things, not only cause damage to vehicles and personnel casualties, can also cause damage to social infrastructure, government departments also need to send rescue teams, which requires the Government to pay. According to the NHTSA report, "in 2010, the fees paid for the motor vehicle collisions accounted for 7% of the total public expenditure in 2010 and spent a total of 18 billion dollars of taxpayers, from the United States imposed a tax of $ 156 in every household. "Fundamentally reduce the number of accidents, meaning that you can have more money to invest in better things.

　　Combined with driverless cars can bring enthusiasm in other ways, such as increased productivity, reduced congestion, and reduce fuel consumption. According to the traffic report released by Eno Center in 2013 shows that if we have half of them used the drone technology, then it can give us an annual saving of about $ 211 billion.

　　If the driverless car is widely popular, local governments need to do is to reallocate resources, and more clever ways to generate revenue.
