What does it take to make a Driverless Car in India?

 The key points which need to be considered in launching a driverless car in India.

  1. State of the Roads
  2. Position of commercial vehicles
  3. Cases of emergencies
  4. Cases of breakdown
  5. Preventive maintenance of the road, the car and the passenger

 The State of the road is why we need apps which collect data and can present them to the relevant authorities. Speedbreakers are a very important factor and a hazard to be considered. In most cases, a speedbreaker can actually be considered as a greater hazard than a pothole.

The position of the commercial vehicles, is important to note commercial vehicles which are speeding or driving in the fast lane. In case of a breakdown of a commercial vehicle especially in a precarious area like a ghat section, adherence to warning signs like reflectors being placed half a kilometer before and after the vehicle, needs to be evaluated.

Cases of emergencies, means sensors on the passengers to observe drowsiness or chances of a heart attack.

Cases of breakdown, occur due to mechanical failure or failure on the part of the driver or a failure on the part of the third party.

Preventive maintenance, sounds like it should come before breakdown cases, but sadly it has been missed for a long time.

It requires maintenance of the supply chain, tracking of the vehicle, similarly maintenance of the health of the body, tracking vital signs.
