There's an ex NASA/JPL engineer who now works for Nissan who regularly holds demonstrations on why autonomous vehicles will never make it. In his demonstrations he shows a library of videos of humans breaking the law to avoid fatal automobile accidents. He rightly suggests that computers could never be programmed to do what these humans did let alone be programmed to break the law.
While the marketing people have gained control over the remaining qualified engineers on design issues then expect to hear more of this kind of autonomous vehicle cr@p ad-nauseum.
