common factor within the vehicles. The risks involved while the car is in autopilot is disengagement‚ reaction time‚ and accident prevention. The California Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) requires an annual report on autonomous vehicle disengagements and accidents in order to issue a permit and monitor the testing of the vehicle (Dixit 2). Disengagement is a risk because in the automated vehicles it requires the driver to be alert ad capable of taking control of the vehicle at all times. The disengagements

The electricity requirement for compressing air has to be considered while computing overall efficiency. Nevertheless the compressed air vehicle will contribute to reducing a air pollution and tend to zero pollution level and promoting great environment. Main advantage of this engine is that no hydrocarbon fuel required means no combustion process is take place. HISTORY In fact‚ two centuries
