I'd like to imagine we'd have "manual override" controls like I, Robot (2004) showed: https://youtube.com/shorts/46-EGyn7rwc https://youtube.com/shorts/46-EGyn7rwc As implied in the clip, after a few years of self-driving cars, most passengers won't know how to drive well enough for it to be safe and other autonomous vehicles might not coordinate well with a manual driver. A "pull over" button could work, but still relies on the automated driving capabilities. A third option would be to dial an "expert driver" who takes remote control of the car to get you to safety, bypassing both the automated driver and the passengers' inability to drive. Lack of connectivity could be an issue, and it opens the door wider for hackers (already an issue though). However I have to imagine that in-transit connectivity will be increasing dramatically once people want to work or watch Netflix during their commute.
