Hence the testing with a human driver. How else can a be made 'ready' for the road?
If one wants to find an organisational failing, it might be in the area of psychology - i.e not putting safeguards in place to ensure the human driver is fully engaged with the job in hand. Perhaps requiring then to give a running commentary on the road situation, as is done in training for advanced driving licences (police drivers etc). If this police report is verified, then the human driver wasn't expecting her employers to routinely review video of her eyes.
The vast majority of vehicles on the road today have human drivers and no Volvo-style automatic braking.
