If I was a cop, and I pulled over an autonomous vehicle, and my job is to protect and serve, I'd feel obligated to flatten the tires and/or shoot at it, because it seems like a threat to everyone's safety.

But maybe I'm too extreme. I guess it's ok if one of them speeds a little, or if it makes an illegal u-turn, but it's not going to be ok if it runs a stop sign or runs over a pedestrian. One death due to autonomous driven vehicles would be far too many to tolerate.

The TV-worshippers who live in the NE or along the west coast don't understand it, but the puppeteers understand this concept.
