bottom line is it will take government intervention do define what is self driving and what is not and the details around the whole thing
history has shown time after time this is the case...pollution rules, mine safety, work safety, the list goes on
My point is that there are strong market pressures to produce safe vehicles. People will avoid taxis with a bad safety record. Insurance will be high (or unattainable) for self-driving trucks with bad safety records. A couple more lethal crashes and Tesla could be out of business. Boeing rues the day it cut corners on 737 Max.
