Software Now Counts as a Legal Driver

How does a cop get an autonomous car to pull over?

How does the autonomous car know where to pull over?

How does the cop ask the autonomous car any questions?

How does a cop write an autonomous car a ticket?

Does an autonomous car have to show up in court?

How will a cop determine if the car was in control or the person in the car?

Ok, maybe I'm being a bit over the top, but this is going to change everything...
