Self Driving cars online review

Jon, Cruz, Andrew, and Michael worked together

Our first impressions of the website:

 The Google website has an amazing layout with easy to understand information and easy scrolling to read through and understand. The website includes statistics that draw you in and interest you in the subject. There are different tiers of information to easily jump from point to point. Because the information is linked through Google, the website seems very credible and has research backing it. It was really interesting to see how far the cars have already come. "We've self-drive more than 2 million miles mostly on city streets. That's the equivalent of over 300 years of human driving experience."  (Waymo) Hopefully for the future self-driving cars become more reliable and safer for everyone to take advantage of.

Second article:

The article we compared to the website is called Self Driving Cars, an Ethical Perspective. The article itself is far less exciting than the google release of their Waymo development. There is just over a page of commentary discussing ethics of the new cars and how they can improve human lifespan. The article discusses liability and safety, though in their one page article they have sited three sources, but not many quotations or places of obvious information from other sites. One of their sites that they linked, which is actually really interesting having typed this out; they cited the Google development website.
