To be fair, this happens in Russia quite frequently and people try to make easy money suing if they survive (Though usually it's aimed at only getting injured >_>). I wouldn't put it past people targeting a vehicle that they /knew/ would respond in a predictable way. Doubtful Google would lose in court, but hey, no court case is the best court case.But really, the scenario that even brings all this up is basically someone lunging out in front of an autonomous vehicle with the deliberate intent of getting hit. Which is suicide, which also doesn't fault Google.
