In the last few years, self-driving vehicles have become more numerous and more controversial. To their fans, these cars-of-the-future take the human element out of automobile control and are far safer than human-controlled cars.

A recent motor vehicle accident in San Francisco involving a Tesla is likely to stir the pot of controversy even more.
