My understanding so far was that erratic behavior was the norm rather than sporadic exceptions and that it was common that a driver had to take over. I mean, we keep hearing about Tesla "self driving" cars that are really anything but, and I wouldn't be very surprised if Uber's SDV had similarly poor levels of autonomy. Also, it has been pointed out time and again that the dashcam dynamic range didn't reflect what a human would have been able to see if they were just looking at the road like they were supposed to. > Here, Uber put a "driver" in control of the car that by design wasn't able to avoid collisions with pedestrians To play devils advocate, doesn't this describe any profession involving regular vehicles (mail delivery, taxi drivers, etc)? If a taxi driver gets into an accident for dozing off and relying on auto-braking features that aren't there (either because he does in his personal car, but not in his work car, or a company technician forgot to reconnect it after a repair or whatever), whose fault should that be?
