> Have you ever driven on a busy road way before?
Yes, on a regular basis.
Have you ever tried reporting a dangerous or aggressive driver to the police?
> Police cannot, and arguably should not have the ability to, monitor drivers 100% of the time
They should, and ability is only a matter of time.
There is no right to being an asshole in a large, loud, dangerous machine.
> For the most part they are forced to resort to what can be considered scare tactics just to place the idea in driver's heads that they might be caught.
For the most part, they do nothing at all.
> The idea that doubling, tripling, quadrupling, or whatever is necessary, police activity will enable autonomous drivers is absurd.
You don't need to increase police activity at all. Police just need to care and process evidence provided by autonomous vehicle companies (or, hell, by citizens).

We can give them (especially the rural and small-town ones) one hell of an incentive by banning speed limit enforcement, or at least confiscating all revenue from speeding tickets, while leaving enforcement of other infractions unencumbered.
