text: Not only is this whole concept outragously dangerous, but the question of liability also has to come into play. In the event of an accident where technology fails and someone is injured someone would have to figure out who is at fault, the driver or the manufacturer. You could say that it was the drivers choice to get in the car and let it drive itself, but the manufacturers were at the origin of the problem. These are all things innocent people would not have to go through. In paragraph 9 of the article it says, "Presently, traffic laws are written with the assumption that the only safe car has a human driver in control at all times. As a result, in most states it is illegal even to test computer-driven cars." If it is illegal in most states to even test computer-driven cars, how would it be smart to drive them?
