They will create a separate lane for these self drives..
Some variation of the graph below will be used in the very first class-action lawsuit against an auto manufacturer for producing a deadly self-driving car:
I can see the line of questioning in the courtroom involving the engineers and executives on the witness stand ...
ATTORNEY for the PLAINTIFFS: "If you knew that the exposure to fatal injuries increased dramatically at speeds above 25 miles per hour, then why did you design an operating system for this car that would allow it to travel faster than that speed?"
ATTORNEY for the DEFENSE: "Your honor, I'd like to request an adjournment so my client can discuss the terms of a settlement in this case before it goes to the jury."
Will that lane be on the left near where the deer first cross in front of your car?
ALSO ....where is that "separate lane" on a two lane back road?
