If these driverless cars are not programmed to violate the law on occasion in reaction to dangerous situations then they will be the real cause, if not the legal cause of many accidents. Insurance costs will ultimately reflect that.

We have lots of red light cameras in Long Island today ( we call them PENSION cameras because they help to pay the fat pensions of county government retirees).
My friend stopped at a red light once but there was a fire truck behind him with sirens blaring. He had no choice but to go pass the red light to allow the fire truck to pass.
Well guess what, HE WAS TICKETED anyway. He went to court to dispute it with his explanation and was told by the judge to go to the Nassau Fire Department to get proof that a fire truck was indeed dispatched at the time the violation occurred.
I wonder of these driverless cars are programmed to do what my friend did....
