Later in the paragraph, he uses pathos again when talking about a family in Leonhardt’s community who had died in a car crash. The fact that it was a family in the author’s neighborhood makes it a little more appealable, yet the author tells the story ineffectively due to a lack of emotion in his storytelling method. The story was very brief, lasting only two sentences. I now length doesn’t usually make something effective or not, but the story lacked important details that could have made it more effective. For instance, if the author had given the people in the story names, it would have made the story easier to sympathize with, but without the names, the characters were dehumanized, leaving the audience without a genuine care for the characters. …show more content…
The author effectively uses logical arguments to make the fear of automated cars irrational.

In the same paragraph, he points to consumer trust in American commercial airlines, which heavily rely on automation to do most functions, and he states, “the last [fatal crash among American air carriers] happened in 2009.” This is a strong point to make because it makes consumers rethink how they view automated functions if hundreds of millions are already putting their lives in its
Within, the March 2018 Vol. 70, 3rd edition of the Motor Trend Magazine on the 21st page a Jaguar advertisement proclaims that their new midsize E-Pace SUV has the “Best in class coverage” in the bottom right corner of the page.

Harwell effectively presents his argument by utilizing the Aristotelian appeal, ethos.

Also, Mr.Gilmer used Ethos appealing to the audiences good morals for this reason

The IAT Harvard survey consisted of multiple topics regarding race, genders, thoughts on sexuality and so on. One topic was if one prefers European Americans over African Americans. Surprisingly, the results were that most people strongly prefer European Americans over the other. Why is that? Maybe it’s because many people place stereotypes and other ideals towards another individual, whether they have a different skin tone, whether they are male or female, as well as other characteristics one may notice.

Peterson first develops his claim by stating that Americans have used autonomous travel ever since horses pulled buggies, and that autonomous travel is not new, it is just better; Peterson then supports his claim by presenting a statistic which states that roughly 32,000 people die each year from vehicular accidents and 93-95% of them are caused by human error, Peterson advocates that self-driving cars would decrease the number of fatalities from such accidents, as the technology of the vehicles would work to avoid these tragedies, and
