All well and good if you drive in a city where everything is perfect.
If you are driving at night in the bush and a roo jumps in front of you, the computer may detect it and put on the brakes, but if the simple laws of physics detemine that the braking force via the tyre to road interface wont stop you in time, you are custard. Its all well and good until it doesnt work.
If you want a self driving car, its simple, get a taxi, bus or train.
