But here is the hidden problem: "requires driverless vehicles used on highways
be capable of complying with all traffic laws, be equipped with video recording devices and be insured just like other cars. It also makes the manufacturer responsible for any broken traffic laws or car wrecks, as long as the automated driving system hasn’t been modified by anyone else."
It has nothing to do with capability, it is what actually occurs that matters. People are capable of driving safely but many don't and this wording is a huge loophole which corporate lawyers will take full advantage of when (not if) a problem occurs

More proof that politicians are generally stupid
And it still doesn't address the ultimate problem of personal responsibility for one's actions. If I carelessly run over your kid I go to jail, but if a system I design for a corporation does it nothing bad is required to happen to me nor can I normally be put in jail for that, so there is not an equal motivation to be absolutely safe no matter what. And that is clearly wrong but is currently the law in the US
