The only way to change this is to affect corporate shareholders, not punish users.
Pushing responsibility onto individual drivers for misusing automated systems is not the answer.
Making it painful enough to progress to the technology closer to infallibility is the way forward.
As always it comes down to the incentives and desired outcomes argument.
We aren’t trying to incentivize good behavior. We are trying to close the distance between technical promise and genuine achievement. You, in general principles, have to build the incentives around negative or positive consequences to manufacturers, not punish technology users for not using the half-ass implementation properly.
Top management is almost always most concerned with an innovation’s likely effect on the bottom line and they are accustomed to receiving market feedback, proposals and regulatory guidance that in turn help them prioritize resources to optimize for a return on investment and payback. We want to leverage that decision system to fix self-driving not engage in punitive end-user punishment because end users can’t do anything to change it.
TLDR; Right instinct, wrong clowns.
