Part One of Two - Technologies in Development

• I think the technology that is least likely to happen are the Next-Gen Active Safety Features   because how would this technology be useful to an automated driving system. If the majority of cars in the future become automated this technology will be useful for cars that still have Human Drivers. 
• I do not believe that any of the 6 technologies will have a big impact on society.Why? Flying have been proposed for a long time, electric cars have been on the market for years and will increase only because Oil is a resource that won't survive the century, Automated cars and technologies that take the independence out of driving will not be popular with everyone. These technologies will be used by more people in the coming decades, but only a minority of the population will use them.
• I think the first one that will be used widespread in automobiles will be the electric car as electric cars are already on the market, and adding batteries that last for longer periods of time won't be a difficult challenge.
• Ford's new system will keep drivers safe by making drivers aware more aware of the situation around them by showing them traffic and making them aware of their stress level. If other drivers are not driving in an appropriate manner, you can be made aware and address it accordingly
• I'm not in favour of flying cars because a car is meant to be driven not flew. An advantage of flying cars is that you could arrive at your destination at a faster speed that you normally would. A disadvantage of flying cars is that they would be very difficult to use for the average Joe. A plane is difficult thing to drive without the added benefit of also being able to be used as a car.
• Self driving cars are could for who have difficulty driving cars. People who like to drive and see scenery may like self driving. I personally don't like self driving cars because they take the freedom of driving away and being driven around seems lazy to me as driving a car is not that difficult because most people living the West have automobiles and know how to use them.
