1DRIVERLESS TRUCKS COULD CHANGE AUSTRALIAIntroduction The case scenario demonstrates how the current infrastructure of advanced informationtechnology is getting positively as well as negatively impacted with the innovation of driverlesscars. This is referred to as one of the most exciting and advanced technologies within the horizonthat could have terrible consequences for Australia’s ripping communities. From theconsideration of the business aspects it has been found that, driverless car or self driving car is anautomated technology that is basically a robotic vehicle (Driverless-trucks, 2017). Without thehelp of the human intervention a vehicle must be able to navigate it as a qualifying one. Theintervention is a preliminarily determined destination over the roads which is not been adoptedfor its general usage. The technology is beneficial because it reduces the pressure from thehuman and the efficiency of a machine always stands greater than man power. Though, designsof this kind of machines are costlier than the traditional one but due to its operational excellence,most of the large vehicle manufacturing companies have started designing these self driving cars.Utilitarianism TheoryUtilitarianism is the theory that provides maximized utility to the actions. Since last 7 to 8years the automobile industries have become a source of economic growth and innovation inAustralia ()Bojarski et al., 2016). The capability of driving has become a symbol for mobilityand independence which spans the generation. Automobile industries bring effective profits in the society by playing innovative as wellas significant roles. Through, the rate of inefficiency is increasing that is relevant to theautomobile usability is continuously staggering. There are many manufacturing agencies that

The self driving cars or an intelligent car works with all thepreliminarily determined activities and operations as well. The additional technologies includeself steering, LIDAR, GPS, DGPS and digital maps (Brett 2016). In order to track differentobjectives in the mid road or road side, the automated steering system is found to be very muchbeneficial. The steering system holds a camera as well. The optical remote sensing technology isalso used by the automated car development department. With the help of the GPS tracker theautomated car developing system will be able to understand about the detail track through whichthe car might driver to send the consumers to their desired destination.Deontology theoryDeontology theory is referred to as normative ethical position that helps to judge themorality o different actions.Though this innovative technology helps the business owners to gaineffective benefit from the marketplace but at the same time name ethical and non ethical aspectsare also associated to this technology those might affect the general operation and functionalflow of the automotive car manufacturing company (Howard and Dai 2014). The operational andfunctional requirements of the self driving cars are similar to the traditional cars like the selfdriving cars also run with the help of petrol (Hee Lee, Faundorfer and Pollefeys 2013). However,the Tesla car manufacturing company manufactures cars that run through the help of solarenergy. After analyzing the features of the self driving cars it has been found that, the future ofthe self driving is under broad question.In the self driving technology of Australia, vast amount of ethical challenges andquestions are present. As this kind of cars are operated with the help of technology only thus ifthe technology fails then accidents might occur. The self driving cars use radar sensor to detect
