VIII. Read the text and answer the questions. URBAN TRANSPORT PODS The people living in Milton Keynes, a town about 70 kilometres northwest of London, have been introduced to a new transport experience when they use “pods” to travel on certain routes. The pods are a kind of driverless cars which travel at 19kph and are able to transport two people and their luggage. There is a touchscreen in windshield of the pods where passengers select their terminal. During the trip they can also read the news, check emails or play video games on the screen. Powered by electric motors, the pods have ultrasonic sensors and a GPS system that help themselves know where they are going and how to avoid obstacles along the way. People can use a smartphone app to hail a pod in the street.
