So what - will companies stop producing non-self-driving cars? Will regulators force that action? I can't see either happening if self-driving cars have major limiting factors like that. The alternative to self-driving cars that behave badly is not necessarily other self-driving cars, but simply non-self-driving cars.

> So what - will companies stop producing non-self-driving cars? Will regulators force that action? self-driving cars will quickly prove to be thousands of times safer than human-driven cars. given a few decades for public opinion to align with the facts we'll see human-driven cars heavily regulated as the extreme hazards that they are. > I can't see either happening if self-driving cars have major limiting factors like that. the 'limiting factors' are introduced as optional 'luxury features' several years after self-driving cars have established domination of the market, and over the years are integrated downward into more accessible models.
