Question

you are writing a body paragraph of an argumentative essay about self-driving cars. You are arguing that self-driving cars should be used.

Which quotation would be most relevant to add to the paragraph?

Another reason self-driving cars should be allowed on roads is because they can help more people get around. Specifically, they can help people who might not be able to drive on their own, such as some older people. Some older people are not able to drive anymore. By using self-driving cars, they could go to the grocery store and social activities. Allowing self-driving cars on the roads gives more people a chance to get around.
The United States Department of Transportation explains that fully self-driving cars “could increase mobility for seniors and people with disabilities.”
Harvard Business Review states that many people cannot afford self-driving cars because they “are costly compared to older vehicles.”
According to the University of Michigan, self-driving cars “use combinations of technologies and sensors to sense the roadway.”

Answer 1

The United States Department of Transportation quote: “could increase mobility for seniors and people with disabilities.”

Reason: it directly supports the paragraph’s claim that self-driving cars would help older people and others who can’t drive on their own, whereas the other quotations address cost or technical details and do not support the mobility argument.
