This is my idea 

So I am going to write about self driving car specifically about (Toyota ) company. I chose to write about self driving car because I want to​ learn more about our future and to expand my knowledge in this path. It is really important to know about this amazing invention because self car driving in fact will solve many problems in the future. It is really good and important for the society because it will provide transportation for people who can not drive because of the age and physical problems. ​ However, I see a lot of benefits of this invention. First of all it is safer, Self-driving cars could reduce vehicle related fatalities machines may make fewer errors than humans. ​Every year in the United States, 1.3 million people are injured in car accidents, with about 40,000 fatalities. A 90% reduction in accidents. Self driving car will reduce the amount of accidents. The data so far suggests that the introduction of self-driving cars will reduce the number of traffic accidents by upward of 90%. In addition, it is good to help people find a fast parking if people are in hurry they can trust these cars. ​Why would anyone drive themselves into a city and waste time and money looking for parking, when they could be delivered to their destination in comfort by a self-driving Uber! This means less traffic congestion, less need for parking space, but also a drop in city revenues from parking meters and parking tickets.​ However,  A lot of the company will start to sell self driving cars in 2020, so we should have some information about that. For example, Japan looks to launch driverless car system in Tokyo by 2020, TOKYO (Reuters) - A self-driving car service could be on Tokyo’s public roads in time for the 2020 Olympics as Japan looks to drive investment in new technology to drive economic growth. ​There will be 10 million self-driving cars on the road by 2020. Toyota is one of the most popular cars company in the world, you can see Toyota everywhere in the world. Also, a lot of companies want to do exchange of benefits with Toyota 

company, for example Uber. So it is a good idea to know about their business and collect some information, to learn how their business is work. Uber is raising $500 million from​ Toyota​ at a valuation of roughly $72 billion, as first reported by The Wall Street Journal. The deal is part of an agreement between the two companies to develop autonomous vehicle technology together. Toyota’s relationship with Uber stretches back to at least 2013, when Uber drivers started to get discounted​ financing​ on Toyota cars
