    As long as the “driver” is responsible in case of a crash and not the manufacturer of the car, it will stay supervised no matter what the underlying tech is. “But your honour, I wasn’t paying any attention, it was the autonomous car that drove over the kid” is not a valid defence.

      Except it has been advertised as full self driving for about a decade now, and Elon Musk has even claimed it’s safer than a human driver, because it doesn’t lose concentration or attention.

      That was exactly the point. There are quite a number of cars with actual self-driving technology, where the driver is not responsible. Or if there is no driver.

        How is this downvoted? It’s a correct response to a false claim: "no matter what the underlying tech is. "
        The post responded to is basically nonsensical.

        Also this part:

        As long as the “driver” is responsible in case of a crash and not the manufacturer of the car, it will stay supervised

        If this was changed to “it must stay supervised” It would make more sense.
