>> communication with other human drivers.

I would shorten that to "other humans", to specifically include pedestrians. That 1/2-second eye contact between driver and human is key. Would anyone here dare walk in front of a car without that little nod from the driver?

The other edge case, one that is never discussed, is how these things expect to deal with off-road driving. I regularly use car ferries. Getting on and off those, and negotiating the terminals, stumps many human drives.
