Mladenovic and McPherson researched to assess how social justice will be adopted in the control of traffic when self-drive cars start dominating the roads. The study outlines the importance of addressing questions that arise from the engineering of social justice in the traffic transformation and attempts to sketch a preliminary framework for incorporating social justice in traffic control. The study further explains how new forms of traffic control technology will have implications for several dimensions of social justice. The implications covered in the study include safety, privacy, sustainability, efficiency, and equal access to social justice. The study focuses on the efficiency of the proposed social justice system as well as equal access by individuals using self-driven vehicles. The limitations that could be associated with the social justice system are further addressed in the study. The researchers propose the introduction of a priority based system that will give the users to select the priority levels based on non-credit commercial structures.

Page and Krayem researched to identify the preparedness for the revolution expected in the transport system due to the introduction of self-driven vehicles. The study aims at checking the efficiency with which different bodies have prepared for the different hurdles that will be associated with the introduction of self-driven vehicles.  The study outlines the challenges that are expected to be faced by individuals and firms involved in the maintenance and operation of self driven cars. The study gives an example of cybercrime that is expected to be a significant threat in the self-drive car business. Also, the study outlines the safety and regulation issues that are associated with self-drive cars. The study advocates for serious attention to be given concerning cyber security and privacy protection while dealing with self-drive cars. The recommendation given concerning the safety issue is the strengthening of the bill of rights to close the gaps that pave the way for cybercrime and privacy violation. The researchers are concerned that several issues have remained unresolved concerning the preparedness for self-drive vehicles.

Borjarski et al. attempted to improve an end to end learning procedure for self-drive cars. The main aim of the study was to create a system that required less human data and intervention to be able to drive a car in a busy traffic system. The researchers argued that the technology would operate even in areas with inadequate visual allowance such as parking lots and tunnels. The study aims at creating a better performing and a smaller system to replace the already existing self-drive system. The researchers claim that the system can beat the issue of network unavailability since it will be able to operate on smaller networks and will be set to operate using minimal processing steps. The system will be set to be able to decide where to drive a car.
