In a market setting, once a car has sufficient sensing capability that it is possible to even write down an algorithm in code, there will probably be very little choice for the manufacturer to make once this goes through the legal dept/the courts/the insurers. If I were an automaker, I'd probably avoid the choice altogether and just stop the car. If the brakes failed, activate emergency brakes, or devise a new kind of emergency stop system; we can imagine extreme measures like jettisoning the wheels.
