I'm not sure that's true. Even if the cops show up and give someone a DUI, I'd imagine civil courts would still do a proximate cause analysis in a negligence case.

If the car was driving itself, then I'd think the manufacturer of the self-driving feature would be. I still think there would be a proximate cause analysis in this situation too.
