Bartleby the Tesla at a stop sign: I'd prefer not.
My most Luddite view is that AV are not worth it right now. Maybe in 10 years, but I see too many idiots on the freeway sleeping or playing video games in Teslas while in the driver seat. If you're too busy to command a vehicle that can kill you and those around you, Uber to work or take the train. I don't trust the roadways to be a massive experiment in how close a corporation can cut it on self-driving tech with some acceptable margin of death. Sure, human drivers are probably worse in normal circumstances. But I'd happily outlaw AV in any peculiar circumstance till 99.9999% of the kinks are worked out away from other drivers who haven't opted into the grand experiment of robots on the road.
