You're giving the car too much credit, it's not Terminator (yet). It's not making a decision over life and death. It's following your heuristic decision matrix to merely avoid a collision. Over time they will get better at avoiding collisions. Given more time and more tech communicating with cars and surrounds, they will be even better at avoiding collisions. Iterative improvement. They aren't going to solve all our road-going woes in a fortnight.

The point I've been trying to make is that a self-driving car can make a decision over life and death following a heuristic decision matrix that was decided apriori, viz. hardwired into the vehicle, by others (and including only the factors entered into the system, sensors etc.).
