The point of the lights obviously being to push the responsibility onto the drivers around the self-driven car, rather than the manufacturer who actually made the faulty autopilot.

I have a prototype self driving system in my car. It drives logically and consistently, but it doesn't behave like a human.

This would be a really helpful feature as self driving becomes more common.

And I live in California. Of course we're going to help rich people avoid all consequences of their actions. Because paying attention to where your 1 ton metal missile is going is too much to ask. But only if you can afford the turquoise lights.
