Certain technologies end up causing more problems than they help, sch as lane assistance pulling a car too far to the side to "keep the car in the lane". These things need to be tested better on country roads and backroads instead of only in controlled lab environments

Yes; humans must maintain meaningful control over their vehicle, and thus retain accountability; vehicle driver liability, even during ‘fully’ automated driving. This should further coincide with specific government restrictions/regulations, on the use of advanced technology in vehicles, in order to deter absolute and over reliance on these advanced technologies; prevent driver complacency, and increase road safety.

Only AI and self-driving systems until the far future (as in communist post-scarcity economy). Safety checks can remain. Design cars so they crumple instead of ripping or folding. Discourage purchases of SUVs and heavy utility trucks by consumers who don’t need them but only buy them for status.

Yes because humans still need to fixed robots but I believe we should keep humans more than robots

 @B4ZP2XZanswered…1yr1Y

I think that there should be cars that had advanced technology but maybe the Government could introduce a new type of restricted license for advanced drivers that are intelligent and aware enough to drive with said technology. They must be able to pass some kind of special test to obtain such vehicles in the first place.

No, however manufacturers should be required to complete certain tests to demonstrate the technology is safe, and they will be held fully liable for any damages or errors caused by automated systems such as self-driving technology.
