well, eventually with autonomous systems, the manufacturer does need to take on more responsibility. what we're seeing with tesla is the middling ground where they're attempting to have the best of both worlds, where they decrease driver involvement, but also remain no more liable than before.

the reality is that driver replacement systems of any level actively shift liability towards the designer of the system, but they've got bigger lawyers than little old me or you.
