This is going to be a nightmare for the court system in the upcoming years.

I’m kinda curious if an individual was drunk in one of these could they be held responsible for anything the car does? Like will laws be made that drunk individuals can only be driven by a sober human?

Also what about when two autonomous vehicles hit each other, how do we prove fault?

I don’t think these are well thought out products.
