Im assuming they wanted to avoid having people get hit from behind when stopped in the middle of the road, hence the whole auto pull over thing.

But yeah they should still have a kill switch, maybe make it activate the slow and pull over protocol above a certain speed, or dead stop if operating at a slow speed?
