One thing that hasn't been been mentioned is what kind of security the car's operating system has. Image what will happen after the first major autonomous car-virus, especially if the virus is malicious rather than merely incidentally introducing bugs. Keep in mind it's not to hard for a virus to be very malicious since autonomous cars need to know what pedestrians are in order to avoid hitting them.
Have there been major cell phone viruses? I haven't heard of many, but maybe I'm just out of the loop.
