"The real problem is that the car is too safe"

No, the real problem is the government has passed too many laws and tried to too strictly control driver behavior. The result is universal violations of overly restrictive laws (think speed limits for example). So now autonomous car-makers will have to decide whether to mesh with the real world or with government dictate, and prepare for the lawsuits when they do the latter and people get hurt.

red lights and stop signs are for discourteous people that CAN drive but don't or won't ..... they're also there for people that have a driver's license that proves they don't know how to drive
