Imagine getting into your car, speaking a location into your car’s computer, and then letting it drive you to your destination. The idea behind self-driving cars is fairly simple: build a car with a computer that is connected with many cameras which can track all the objects close to it, give the computer all the driving rules and routes, and then the computer should be able to drive to the destination. There are many benefits of self-driving cars. Research shows that using self-driving cars can greatly reduce the number of cars on the street because 80 % only have one person driving alone in a car. Self-driving cars can also lower the cost of transportation, which is 18 % of a person's income in the U.S.A. Besides, “These cars won't get drunk, drive too fast, or take risks,” said the CEO of Fastcar, John Smith. Early estimates suggested that self-driving cars would be the standard in 2020, but instead there were only a few research vehicles on the road in 2020. As the technology is currently under research and being improved, it is likely in the near future that we will see self-driving cars move safely on public roads among traditional cars. When they arrive, their cost, safety and convenience will make them part of our daily lives. Companies that research self-driving cars which plan ahead, adjust the quickest, and imagine the most will succeed.

請觀察文章第三段，作者在提到 2020 年時使用了一個轉折詞「instead（反而）」，這暗示了當時真實的發展情況與原先預期的「普及」有所不同。請找找看，文中是用哪一個特定的詞彙來定義當時出現在路上的那些少數車輛？
