7、s need to think hard about the impact of driverless vehicles, especially in terms of the expanding of the cities.In some ways, wider developments in automotive technology are good for the environment. Electric cars will increasingly replace the internal combustion engine(内燃机 ), and that should, in t
8、heory, reduce carbon emissions and healthdisturbing air pollution.Through minimizing traffic jams, driverless cars may also reduce energy use on the whole.Unlike human drivers, computers can avoid needless acceleration and braking that worsen jams.And, as autonomous vehicles arent limited by human r
9、eaction times, it may make sense to increase speed limits for them on major intercity routes.So 【 精品教育资源文库 】 driverless cars promise a future of faster journey times with much reduced environmental impact! They may even mean less wildlife roadkill. But its the very efficiency of driverless cars tha
10、t brings a challenge for planners and conservationists.The threat is an unchecked increase in lowdensity urbanization.Autonomous vehicles promise a future in which passengers are free to use their time productively (working, for example).And they can park themselves,which saves yet more time in the
11、morning rush.Coupled with faster journey times,the motivation to live further out of town will increase significantly. There are both push and pull factors at work here: skyhigh residential prices in most cities push people away from city centres while healthy environments and green living pull peop
12、le towards the countryside.The limiting factor in suburban(郊区的 ) spread is often travel time, either by public or private means. Driverless cars completely change the situation.Existing planning policies are based on our current transport systems.Green belts, for example, are designed to reduce the
13、expanding of the cities by restricting development within a buffer zone(缓冲地带 ) around an urban area.However, the reduced transport times offered by driverless cars make it easier to live outside the belt while still working inside.So these belts of green are in danger of becoming a thin layer in a s
14、andwich of everspreading suburbanisation.This is, of course, a familiar challenge since the rise of the automotive age in the 1940s.However, the solutions designed by planners have been calibrated(标定 ) for a humandriving automotive system not for the supercharged future of driverless transport. Othe
15、r examples of planning protection for wildlife include nature reserves,national parks and (in the UK) “Area s of Outstanding Natural Beauty”.Such areas have either strict control on development, or do not permit it at all.However, they are nice places to live in or nearby.The coming revolution in au
16、tomotive journey times and the ability to work behind the (computerdriven) wheel will make living in such areas increasingly compatible(可共存的 ) with a journey to the nearest city. Natural habitats(栖息地 ) being lost entirely or broken into eversmaller parts have long been understood as some of the prim
17、ary causes of species disappearing across the world.The expanding of the cities threatens to increase the extent of both habitat deprivation and breaking.These threats are well known among conservationists, but there are differences in opinions on how best to respond. 【 精品教育资源文库 】 Therere many prob
18、lems in making humans move into cities, but the nearterm planning issues caused by autonomous vehicles will worsen the challenge given that they will lift demand to live in “unspared” lands.Alternatively , some conservationists advocate “landsharin g” , in which human communities redesign the way we
19、 farm and live so as to coexist with wildlife.Autonomous vehicles bring significant challenges for either approach.Whichever approach is taken, well need to redesign existing systems and policies to take account of the increased range that driverless transport speeds.This may involve new zoning laws
