but Human drivers should still be able to override the automated part of the car. In what circumstances? The cars programming would let it operate exclusively within the confines of the law, and it would have better reaction times. No machine is perfect, I wouldn't want to put my life in the hands of a computer anyway. It's scary what technology can do nowadays but I still see humans driving for a long time still.

Well, neither is man.
It's likely, sure. But should that hinder the development of autonomous cars?

I like the idea of a self driving car as long as it's able to react quickly enough to something unexpected for example, a deer jumping into the road.

in the case there is a technical error leading to an accident legally who would be responsible? Would there be a case for a lawsuit?

I like the idea of a self driving car as long as it's able to react quickly enough to something unexpected for example, a deer jumping into the road. I think Mercedes is on top of that. I was rewatching an older Top Gear gear episode the other day, they were discussing the features of the (then) new S-class. One of which was an infrared camera mounted on the front bumper, which relayed an image to the dashboard, including night vision. But it could also detect objects at the side of the road, like a deer. It worked quite well at the time. You just need to pair this with the AI of an autonomous car.

Would there be a case for a lawsuit? excellent question In the case of an accident, which, with the fight programming, shouldn't happen, I do NOT think that the company should take the whole blame, for example : An AI might not be the fault, it could be the cars motor, amount of petrol/deisle .. Etc.. If the person has tampered with the machinery of the car, it might not function properly. I think that autonomy in cars is a GOOD thing.
