Reading this made me wonder about a related question:
Once self-driving vehicles that actually follow the traffic laws become everyday (say >10% of city traffic), how will the perception change of human drivers change?
Driving a little faster than is really safe for nearby pedestriants is currently seen as normal, acceptable behavious, oozing through a traffic light after it's turned red for the driver ditto, parking illegally ditto, even where that obstructs pedestrians' field of vision.
I wonder whether human drivers who have seatbelts and airbags for themselves might suddenly be viewed much less tolerantly when they violate rules and risk other people's health of life, because self-driving vehicles are available for comparison in everyday life.
