What about criminal implications?

PS: i guess the insurance on self diving cars is a little bit different and the accident rate is only part of the picture. Just an example: humans don't get hacked.



I would imagine that criminal liability for hacking a Waymo falls on the hacker, and on Waymo only if they are negligent.


If someone holds a gun to your head and tells you to run a red light, who is liable? Humans can get persuaded to do illegal things by criminals just as well.


Criminal implications of... what, exactly?

Please state your concerns.


Similar legal profile to an elevator when they stopped being operated by people.
