We all have heard about the taxi less drivers but we are going to experience the driverless taxi by the government of Dubai. Now the technology is moving as fast as it can and it’s so glad to know that there is something really innovative being developed for the common public. And thankfully it’s not a new upgrade of any expensive smartphone’s new model but a taxi which does not have any driver! In Dubai, a new form of a public taxi has been introduced which is driverless!

Fantastic news! I’d much rather be in a driverless taxi than one with a driver. They are maniacs.

Google to Introduce a driverless car as well?

The promo by RTA shows that the driverless taxi is a car which does not have a driver. This might be possible that after some time and the success of this venture the drivers won’t be required and the cars will run automatically. Don’t you think that this will provoke the joblessness and what about those who earn through taxi driving. This matter should also be considered by the Dubai government and the technology developers that this technology is reducing the importance of humans and this is as fare and easy as it seems!
