![]() In the high tech world that our generation is living, the real challenge is to find innovative and sustainable transport means that will be convenient and yet sustainable. In my opinion the real sustainable revolution will come with the arrival of the autonomous car those are incapable of breaking the speed limit, less likely to crash, as they will have the feature of car-to-car wireless communication, and programmed for optimum fuel efficiency. Autonomous driving certainly has a huge sustainability potential because vehicles driving at the same slower speeds and quite close to each other will reduce fuel costs and maximize road space. Driverless cars sounds exciting I am sharing an interesting link to check out a Detailed Driverless car market watch for most brands and expected launch http://www.driverless-future.com/?page_id=384 So, till we see this happen we must try alternative transportation for commuting as- Alternative transportation commuting saves huge metric tons of CO2 emissions annually. It is also very interesting to know that the European Commission is hoping that the CO2 emission will fall to 95g per km of CO2 by 2021 and UK government on the other hand is targeting that all vehicles in the country must be ultra low emission and have CO2 emission less than 75g per km by 2040. Technology is bringing improvements in production and fuel efficiency, and encouraging drive more sustainably and change the way we use and think about the car. A recent news video confirms that the Future Tesla cars may go even farther without needing a recharge http://www.usatoday.com/videos/money/cars/2016/08/15/88764210/ Today worldwide, there are over a billion cars on the road, forcing governments to impose more stringent pollution emission standards on new cars. A report in the below link confirms that there are 1.2 Billion Vehicles On World's Roads Now, 2 Billion By 2035
