I understand where you're coming from, but I disagree. There's no reason to expect self-driving cars to play by a looser set of rules than human drivers in the same arena. If a self-driving car fails to behave properly on the road, that's a fault of the self-driving car. Blaming everyone else for expecting a car on the road to behave like any other car on the road feels like victim blaming. We shouldn't have to drive around guessing which cars are human-driven or self-driven and change our behavior accordingly. There's no way that's going to work.
