The ‘self-driving car problem’ to me is that people are so gullible and so easily drawn into cults of personality that the business guy who promised it for a decade (and kept failing and extending his deadline at every single opportunity) was never actually held accountable for his lies, and instead is now the richest man on earth - encouraging others to follow his lead.
All the ones that still have radar and LiDAR seem to be making good progress, but they still have very real issues with misinterpreting objects and other errors. I’m sure they’ll just be rubber stamped by regulators in most of the US because technological progress, but I think they still have a long way to go to meet safety approval in most other countries.
Do you have any sources to back up your claims? From what I’ve seen, the NHTSA is being quite vigilant (see what happened to Cruise), and the classifiers I’ve been privy to have seemed robust.

True that they’re far advanced over Tesla though.
