It does if your only choice is using it or not.
Being responsible is about making choice to reduce risk. If you are required to use a car to sustains the current society and you have no control over the risk of the car, how can you be the one responsible for what it does?

My point is that this "operator" will be the manufacturer.

Thanks for the perfect example to support my case. At one point owning a car will be just like going into a taxi. You wouldn't be responsible for an accident caused by the taxi driver, why would you be if it was a virtual one? Sure if you still had a wheel, but that's certainly not the future we are going toward.
