I bet people are frustrated with the fact that those self-driving cars can drive around, smash into cars and kill pedestrians. Despite data showing that it does drive worse than a human.
In any civilized country, either the local or federal government wouldn't allow such thing.
But as it's America, its leaders believe it needs to be the forefront of everything in the world, so some sacrifices are allowed to be made in the name of the "greater good"(aka, corporate profits without regards into societal impact).
I bet those companies could be driving cars inside a closed space and still teach the car to drive in about the same timeframe, it's just because it's cheaper to do it in the streets while it hits humans and disrupt ambulances and the overall traffic. Those things can only happen in America.
Technocracy at its finest.
