Self Driving Cars and Crashes

"Cars and trucks with electronic driver assist systems may not see stopped vehicles and could even steer you into a crash if you're not paying attention, an insurance industry group warns," per AP Auto Writer Tom Krisher.
  • "The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, in a paper titled 'Reality Check,' issued the warning [today] after testing five of the systems from Tesla, Mercedes, BMW and Volvo on a track and public roads."
  • "The upshot is while they could save your life, the systems can fail under many circumstances."
