Silicon Valley wants us to believe that their autonomous products are a kind of self-guided magic, but the technology is clearly not there yet. A quick peak behind the curtain has consistently revealed a product base that, at a minimum, is still deeply reliant on human workforces.

It's so much easier to get away with shooting someone than this. Also internet going out wouldn't cause the car to stop.

Edit : Not to mention the person can still get out of a car

Fine, I'll drive them into a wall at high speeds then!

Once again, they don't remotely (pun intended) have that capability, and how do you plan on them not tracking it back to you? Much easier to use one of the possible 500m guns in America.

Your idea gets a high dollar investigation into how it happened. With the company at risk for millions/billions in losses looking for the culprit. It's all nonsense.

It's all nonsense.

Yes, yes it is.
