Cars seeing other cars is a far too simplistic view of the implementation. Sensors and software are fault prone. The objective is to not place two vehicles at the same place at the same time. The best way to accomplish that is to have all vehicles paths preprogrammed to avoid vehicle interaction and have contingency planning in case of errors.

Plenty of new tech emerges and survives "a few wrongful death suits". This isn't new. E throttle and ABS and electronic nannies have been getting added for years. This is an evolution, no a creation.
