They just don't use drones; instead, there will be a traffic accident or a suicide. Or a single-car traffic accident, where it's unclear if the driver wanted to commit suicide or not. The main thing that "stops" people from committing acts of war is that you cannot really keep it a secret for too long, and then you will have started a war. Pakistan is different, because while we wage war against their citizens, the central government (a) is only nominally in control of those areas, and (b) is given a metric ton of money each year by NATO, and they don't hate money. If they didn't have nukes, the war against Pakistan would be much more brazen (cf. Ukraine).
