    I for one would like to know when another car isn’t being driven by a human.

      Eventually the reverse will be equally important. So this will be a good idea for decades at least.

          because the’re mostly tested under extremely safe conditions, and current self driving regularly asks you to take back over (you also have to still pay attention and have your hands on the wheel) which makes it level 2. by definition, the human is driving.

        If your car is obviously old and you just bought some shitty magnetic tow lights and simply swapped the color it would be extra funny.
