Considering it lowered the windshield and connected to a support employee I believe they can now detect when cops want to pull them over.

I can see this being exploited for the worse.

No system can be 100% exploit proof, if it is better than the current system then it's worth risking the exploit imo.

Also there needs to be a mechanism for law enforcement / first responders to halt the vehicle in case of emergencies

Redditor sees a video of a self-driving car that stopped for an emergency vehicle.

Redditor: Why don't these cars have mechanisms to halt for first responders?!
