I don't care about self-driving cars until car company CEOs have their kids riding in them. Until then, I am not interested in taking the risk of testing their engineering.
Point 229 in Hammurabi's code: [229] If a builder build a house for some one, and does not construct it properly, and the house which he built fall in and kill its owner, then that builder shall be put to death.
or to put it in your words. CEOs (or their kids) must drive around in driverless cars before patrons pay for them.
That's beyond uncharitable. Please don't post inflammatory, unsubstantive comments to HN.
