If we need warning lights for self driving cars, the technology is not ready.

To play the devil's advocate: early cars needed a guy with a flag im front of them because people were used to horses and carriages and not automobiles. After a while that stopped being a thing.

But yeah, self driving cars are not really ready.

Id argue that motorized carriages back then werent ready for the public.

I havent seen a lvl 3 yet, have you? Id like to know your actual thoughts on driving one. I only see Teslas and such, and they don't have them yet.
