text: Electric cars can be a safety issue to the community and the drivers themselves. Different states already have all their driving rules set out to keep everyone safe. With these new driverless cars new laws will be needed. "if the technology fails and someone is injured, who is at fault?" That will be another responsibility that is in the hands of someone. We will need laws for who's to be held responsible, for what actions need to be taken when something goes wrong, and others to keep pedestrians from getting hurt as well. Although the electric cars alert drivers when to take control, you never know when it could fail to inform you and it could be too late. Some states don't even allow the testing of self driven cars.
