I have seen the Tesla's and frankly I am not impressed with the cutting corners approach. I am old fashioned with love for modernity...tat why I am not fazed with big touch screens etc. However safety cannot be compromised as well as ergonomics and that is using buttons to control air con, gear shift etc...and makes the car look cool too. And not to mentioned the retractable door handles... bloody recipe for disaster. Even chicons land is going to ban those retractable door handles next year.
Car manufacturers are assholes and will cut any corner possible. And using touchscreen for everything saves them heaps. But comes at a cost of safety N ergonomics. N the worst thing is it's promoted as minimalist design...what a load of crock. Anyway with such promoted BS...I won't touch those crap with a 10 foot pole.

The car will drive for you nothing can be safer than that. The weakest link in transportation technology is the driver. The driver suffers way more breakdowns compared to the car.
When self drive technology becomes mainstream traffic accidents and deaths will plunge dramatically. Here's what happens when humans are in charge....

If tat the case...why is it mandated that drivers are responsible when a self driving car crashed..

That's because we have not reached the stage where driving is fully autonomous. We are in a transition stage similar to what happened in the finance industry when computers first appeared on the scene. When banks first computerised they were still required to have manual back up systems. If you walked into a bank and the computer was down your deposit or withdrawal could still be done by humans.
In a couple of years time autonomous driving will be mainstream and we'll all be wondering how we managed when we actually had to drive those damned things ourselves.
