I remember something about Mercedes taking liability when self driving is active, although I don’t know if that still holds. Still, this seems like something that can be approached with proper legislation, assuming we can get past the lobbying BS in the US (though the EU will probably make the right call much sooner).
Yep, I’m pretty confident they won’t be autonomously driving on EU roads legally until they conform to pretty strict legislation which I’m pretty sure will include the liability of the company.
Nice of Mercedes to do the right thing without being forced to, that’s surprisingly rare.
There is - the company. Which they obviously don’t like. I think a huge chunk of people would be fine with them if the companies took responsibility.
