I think it's stupid, inefficient, wasteful, and time-wasting for every auto maker to independently work on developing a self-driving system for cars. They should form a consortium to develop a standardized set of controls and sensors, and standardized software to control the cars. They would also share costs that way.

It's not bad enough that self-driving cars will have to deal with unpredictable human drivers on the road; they'll also have to deal with other self-driving cars which are not programmed to react the same way they are!

Wow, nice points! :) Yeah, I agree with you. With all these self-driving cars on the road, we can surely expect a lot of chaos. :(
