What if there is no driver because the car is self driving?
- gegtik 10mo agoI assume the same as if the car owner put a brick on the gas pedal and there was no driver when it had an accident

- chihuahua 10mo ago"Your honor, I don't know how to explain this to you any more simply. I wasn't driving, there was a brick on the gas pedal. It's not my responsibility, not my fault!"
- fc417fc802 10mo agoOkay but what if I install servos and ask Claude Code to operate the vehicle for me?
- sitharus 10mo agoWell that will depend on your local laws, but to my knowledge except for certain authorised pilot programs all cars on the road must have a driver. Where I live if you are in the driver’s seat no matter if you were actually actively driving you are considered to be the driver. This has been well established here in drink-driving cases, but you’d have to ask a lawyer for your area.
