Really? I'm curios where.

Are you sure you are not thinking about autonomous taxis, that I only ride in, and don't actually drive?

You're correct as far as laws to my knowledge; only L4/L5 'fully autonomous' vehicles are shielded by law.

That said, I think that Mercedes-Benz promises to shield liability, but only under some almost contradictory conditions (pre-mapped highways, good weather, and at speeds lower than any highway I've ever driven) and the driver has to take over within 10 seconds if prompted.
