I'm curious and the article does not mention -- because there is no driver, does that mean GM is at fault for accidents and traffic violations? This avoids the Tesla loophole where a driver needs to be there to take control at any moment.

Interesting point. It would present a couple of legal issues, pending the first speeding ticket made out to GM.

I think Tesla has it right with their implementation of self-driving capabilities - a human is present and logically fully responsible for the vehicle at all times.
