 @mlnews said in Non-IT News Thread: How to ticket self parking cars? How often will they really need to ticket them? I know there will be exceptions but in reality they will be able to follow all rules of the road and innovate new rules/laws.

I know there will be exceptions but in reality they will be able to follow all rules of the road and innovate new rules/laws. Able to follow, and made to follow aren't the same, though. Forcing your car to break the law or breaking the law with a car that allows manual override will be major factors.

 @scottalanmiller said in Non-IT News Thread: allows manual override will be major factors. I think of the movie "I, Robot" anytime I think about needing a car with manual override. "You are having an accident." lol.

But that would still be a person behind the wheel at that point, at least in the case of a manual override.

How do you ticket a self driving car after it has been parked? Because you don't know if there was a software issue, a miscommunication of parking rules or a human parked of their own accord.

Now we're starting to border on civil asset forfeiture. If anything, the person needs to be responsible for what their vehicle does.

Now we're starting to border on civil asset forfeiture. If anything, the person needs to be responsible for what their vehicle does. That's a problem, though, as you can only assign responsibility if they are given control. Otherwise, we are making people criminals based on things out of their control. I'd say that that mandates, at a minimum, guaranteed control of the software and open source by law.
