I totally agree. If the liability comes back to the manufacturer the technology will not be deployed. Every fender bender will result a lawsuit going after a deep pocket company. The only way around that would be legislation limiting manufacturer liability. And that would be quite the battle.I am not sure there are any car manufactures who will be willing to take that kind of liability risk.
The other issue, not sure the correct term, is dispatch reliability. If the computers control the car and the manufacturer has the liability, will the car go if there is the slightest thing out of tolerance? Low pressure in a tire...no go. Some sensor not working...no go. Too much weight in the car...no go.
It'll be a long time before the tech hits the road. My previous post was just to kick the hive and see how mad the bees get.
