Abstract
In
the early 20 century, people shifted from horse drawn vehicles to motorized
vehicles. In the mid 21 century, we will be changing to Autonomous Vehicles
(AV). There are certain perceptions about the safety, fuel efficiency, and the
sustainability of autonomous vehicles. To justify huge investment that is
required for the same and the required behavior driver change, sustainability
and fuel efficiency are to be evaluated. This article looks at these challenges
that Autonomous vehicles are facing and it is essential to evaluate them
properly. It is also essential to evaluate the benefits of AVs in terms of
these challenges. In this present world of Information and Communication
Technology (ICT), any development in the developed countries has direct impact on
the developing countries, even the opinions of the people. AVs present a lot of
challenges and opportunities for developing countries such as India.
