This reminds me of when I was driving in rural Texas a few months back and came across an apparently very recent accident involving a jack-knifed truck. The firefighters had just arrived on scene. While slowly and carefully driving around the accident, a firefighter got out seemed quite upset with me and seemed to be yelling something at me as loudly as he could, but I couldn't make out a word. I still have no idea if I did something wrong. Driving is 99.9% routine and boring and that .1% is ambiguous and quite potentially life threatening. I share the skepticism of self driving cars.

He wasn't actually paying attention and was just flinging his light for directing traffic without thinking about it. Yeah, the .1% can be really ambiguous and dangerous.
