A simple map upgrade costs 200$ and comes out annually. Once the real bad actors get going on steering and other safety systems there will be a bloodbath on the road.

Well that was a concern at one time. New cars do over the air updates now for the most part. Once you get home it will connect to your home wifi and update itself. Just like any other computer. Apple CarPlay and android auto have made map updates and “factory navigation” useless. Super Cruise by Cadillac is already there, they’re marketing as hands free driving vs self driving
