Including "put your hands on the wheel" x2

  If you're instructing the driver to do something, and they don't, your last option is to fail as gracefully as possible (which is "what is the best path forward in the distance I need to stop at emergency braking rate + I must notify the vehicle behind me as soon as its clear I will take automated action, even if that's before I apply braking force").

    That's fair! I guess no one wants automated cars forcing those behind them to rear-end, but eventually it does have to make this sort of decision.

    Going off-road like it did seems safer than stopping on a highway. Sure there was damage, but far safer for the unconscious* occupants than being rear-ended. (* I use "unconscious" because this guy was not paying attention, but also because it appeared to the car that the driver was dead)

    In real life, with real driver nobody taking care of what's behind. Automatic action or not. The distance should be safe. People doesn't drive correctly and this is all the fault of automatic vehicle, that make me sad.
