You show an unwavering faith in the tech, even from profit seeking source's lowest bidders.
The cars electronics have been taught logic, if car 1 does a, do this, because there is 99.999% chance car1 will also do b and c next. If the computers are running car 1 this is true, but people do illogical things the program can't possibly predict.

Are GMOs safe? Define safe. Alcohol is safe. Aspirin is safe. Many things are safe with caveats. 'Did they think of that', is a non-answer to a non-question. The question is, if Monsanto discovered a long term problem, or even a possible problem, would they disclose it? Even though management's primary concern is the next quarter, and the problem wouldn't arise until their golden parachute has deployed, would they see their moral obligation to the people, like Philip Morris, R.J. Reynolds, and Lorillard?
