    You would think that there would be a simple pressure switch installed on the drivers seat. Then again, it might be easy to run a jump wire on it like you can do on a riding lawnmower.

    These companies involved in autonomous driving technology are gonna be in over their heads involving liability issues. They are so busy pumping in money from an investor feeding frenzy. Imagine the lawsuits..this won't just involve suing granny with only a 20,000 dollar policy that pulls out in front of you and totals your car. You will be suing the multi million dollar company behind this technology..this video explains a lot, decisions will be based on pre determined programming

     
    GYPSY65, JoeyJunk, slow.rider and 2 others Thank this.

    Honestly....the engineers and company owners have a home address and bed they sleep in somewhere. Someday, a dead persons Father is going to take them out....old school.

    People who have just lost their entire family think rationally 100% of the time?

    It's okay if you're only making microwave KD and/or having short naps.

    Imo yes they carry 50% of the blame and the other 50% are already taken care of.

    All germans were held accountable for WW2...even though only a small party was responsible.
