The constant question for self driving cars is "How will we know when they are good enough?"

Is there any reason they couldn't just put a driving test examiner in the car and test it like you would a human? Just ask the thing to drive around town, emergency stop, park, navigate a roundabout etc.

Yeah, the driving test assumes you have human level cognitive function and can apply the demonstrated skills in a much much wider variety of situations than those that occur during the test.
