As others have said, the scope of 'Anything that can happen on a road', while large, is a lot smaller than 'Anything that can happen or be imagined to happen'. Moreover, if a pilot AI finds itself in a situation it can't deal with, the failsafe of "hazards on, slow the car and pull over" is nearly always available. There's not really an equivalent for a general AI.
