That's a legal non-starter for all car companies. They would be made liable for every car incident where self-driving vehicles were spotted in close vicinity, independently of the suit being legit. A complete nightmare and totally unrelated to the tech. Makes would spend more time and tech clearing their asses in court than building safe cars.

Mercedes explicitly accepts liability when Drive Pilot L3 is active and used as intended.
That's... Not how it would work.
