I have always been skeptical of FSD because of liability. The system we have today distributes liability to the driver in almost all circumstances – 94% to 96%, according to one quick statistic. It is difficult to imagine this liability being redistributed to a handful (or even 1 or 2) auto manufacturers who remove the driver from the equation.

In other words, I am not sure that auto manufacturers can afford the liability assuming their system reaches a state in which it is 'safer' than a human driver under any condition. The cost of proving that in courts across the world may not be economically feasible.

Mercedes already assumes liability for their L3 system, let’s see when others follow

More like - let's see when Mercedes will stop selling self driving systems or renounces liability for L3 systems when their self driving car will actually crush somebody.
