It doesn't even have to be strict. Driving vehicles is the most dangerous and lethal thing most people do regularly. Software is the most unreliable system most people interact with regularly. Autonomous cars will be lethal and will cause deaths. It's crazy to me that they are being allowed to drive on public roads in such a haphazard fashion. There's no way these cars would pass a driving test. Additionally, in a quarter of the USA for a quarter of the year driving conditions are such (permanent snow cover) that there are no visual indicators of where to drive or park. Cars would need all roads pre-mapped with ground penetrating radar at the least (a giant data set). And even with that it would be difficult. I know this because it's difficult for me as a human and I often have to rely on my contextual knowledge of how human society works and how people behave to know where to drive on a surface, avoid getting in crashes, and figure out how and where to park. None of this is possible for current or near term computers.
