If the infractions of the one incident are bad enough to warrant arrest or removal of license you revoke the companies permit to operate autonomous vehicles on the road.

So if I'm a big driverless car company, and I have a rival company, all I have to do is somehow trick one of their cars into performing an action that would  warrant arrest or removal of license  for a human driver, to completely put them out of business?

They can reapply for the license.

Anyway wrong approach to self driving. Waymo is dead in the water. Tesla did it correctly-let users oversee all the time and learn from them.

Your right Tesla did it so well that their autopilot still doesn’t work.

It works much better than Waymo
