How exactly will driverless cars work, the edge cases are infinite. They would have to be limited to certain routes, conditions, and cities.

Which might be reasonable, anyway - how many humans can handle every edge case?

The drivers who can't handle the edge cases face the justice system. If You or I did that we'd face repercussions.
