I have two kids, currently 3 and 6. I've shown them some of the videos of Autopilot freaking out and doing nonsensical things (like "braking at the moon" because it can't tell the difference between a low, yellow moon and a yellow light). Both of them have quite a bit of experience with Power Wheels and other random wheeled vehicles around the property. I think I'd trust my six year old on the road over Autopilot, given "weird things." At least her vision processing system is capable of going "... huh, that's weird..." instead of "I know what that thing is!" when nonsensical. And she has object persistence, combined with a sense of road speed. We occasionally see weird optical illusions and have to work through them, but she understands the difference between a stoplight and random lights in the night sky (which, around here, are often enough crop dusters).
