Let's be clear and frank about autonomous vehicles. How many people actually want them? Not me or any of my family or friends. The seriously dangerous fact is that certain organisations have been pushing such capabilities because they view it as an extremely profitable niche market in the short term. The really big concern for me and many others is that the recent fatal crash with a Tesla self-driving car and other incidents only go to prove that there is no way that such autonomous vehicles can cater for all the various use-case scenarios encountered on modern roads. I only wish OEMs, manufacturers and so on would realise that I and others are not prepared to pay for any vehicle containing such capabilities - we don't want it! Finally, at what point are manufacturers going to accept liability for failures in their product and face legal action, lawsuits and so on?
