Are robot cars programmed for driving laws ( laws are code, so should be doable ) in a way they can obey the laws?
Can they be given instructions for new laws or do they have to adjust by detecting patterns from human driven cars?
Do they have instructions to determine city/geographic driving ordinances?
Can they detect when a traffic light is out?
It seems they just scuttle about in the intersection jamming up traffic

““The court system is currently unable to process traffic citations for AVs with no human operator. If the vehicle violates a traffic law, where a citation would be warranted, the officer must write a report providing the details surrounding the incident and the law that was violated.”
“So it looks like there are two sets of rules out there -- one for people and the other for robots,” Chris Timmons, a partner with the law firm Knowels Gallant and Timmons, said.”
