My proposal is that we treat liability in the self driving car space similar to the way we have a specialized liability framework for vaccines [1]. Similar to vaccines, self driving cars would lead to reduced deaths on aggregate, but there are cases where the technology fails and people are injured/killed. In the case of vaccines, consumers cannot sue the manufacturers using regular courts but instead there is a separate system where the standard for liability is much higher.

So when your car runs me over, I cannot even get my medical bills paid?! And you wonder why there is no political will behind this?
