Its been a while since I looked into the state of automated driving but its mostly 'advised' to be limited to highways? Also before you get to this situation there is a MASSIVE legal battle that needs to be fought. If your car is fully self driving and the driver has no responsibility, so you can get in your car while drunk, who becomes responsible in the case of an accident? You? impossible since your not driving. The team of programmers that created it? Do they go to jail if your car runs over someone? The certifier that approved that self-driving vehicle would be my first pick. No single programmer did more than a fraction of the code, trying to find the one that did the line that in combination with 20 other functions caused the accident seems strange. Somebody will need to sign that the vehicle is according to whatever law is created for self-driving. The formulation of that law will be the more interesting part. What type of things are allowed and not. It should be much better than a human with that set but will still have accidents. Exploding tire while taking a turn is not the programmings fault as long as it handles it well after the malfunction happens. Or brake system not working for some reason even though programming told it to break and tried all the break systems without effect? At least you won't have people committing suicide by driving into a truck on opposite lanes of a highway. | ||

I guess we need a new kind of insurance that covers whatever the car did wrong since neither the cars "driver" nor anyone in the cars production team will assume responsibility. If you then proceed to drive without this insurance, it is 100% your cost. This is the only way I see this working right now. There are still multiple problems to be solved by car companies until self driving cars can be fully integrated. For example I drive a pretty new and modern car and almost every other week I have a sensory malfunction because of snow, leaves or some other random stuff or just the electronics itself does have some issue. This is always the point where the car either has to stop and wait for repair or the driver takes control. | ||

Some people mistake cockiness and arrogance (extreme, and likely negative, levels of self-confidence) for good-natured, healthy self-confidence, and assume that those assholes have even more going for them (alpha status, success, etc.), which makes them more desirable for some people. | ||

It's some sort of duel, one of the people says something like "I've thought for years about how to beat you" and the other answers "I don't think about you at all" I know that one! But can't put my finger on it where from  Sounds a lot like some Bruce Willis Die Hard coolness levels so we are probably looking at some sort of one man army kinda movie | ||
