I wonder about the time when there are both autonomous and human controlled cars on the road.
Let's say an autonomously controlled car and a human driven car have a collision.
1) Is the rider of the autonomously driven car responsible for unforeseen bugs in the car algorithms?
Or in a differing vein:
2) What effects on human resumption of control would major electronic flux do to autonomously driven cars? What would the legal liabilities to, say Google, be? Would the definition of "Acts of God" have to expand?
There are others.
