    Shock, I thought these vehicles were full proof and would never be at fault in an accident. Will the component manufacturer be sued?

      Can you even name one piece of electronics that works 100% of the time?

    Sheesh! I wouldn’t want to be sitting in that thing without brakes or a steering wheel and see it pulling me into the path of a bus. That’ll evacuate the bowels & bladder.

    The software relied on the kindness of strangers. Its mother didn’t tell it not to trust taxis and buses.

    And it hit the middle junction of the jointed bus! Was it trying to merge between the two sections?

    Had it been a real live person, I’d be willing to bet that they would have been accessed ALL the responsibility. Agree with Agent, maybe they should not wave their flag so highly anymore.

      Some, you are right. We all have electronic devices and cars are made safer than before, but I, for one do not want to trust that the car is going to stop itself if I am bearing down on an 18 wheeler or bus. All you have to have is one small component fail and you are toast. Also, how will the computer choose on whether to hit another car head on or take to the ditch to avoid an accident?
