I'm also waiting for people to exploit these errors and DDoS the systems. Know a particular route will get an autonomous car into a dead end or off a cliff? Order 100 pizzas to the address with stolen credit cards...

An order of 100 pizzas might require human interaction (by policy, not by technological necessity) and depending on how the vehicles are configured, may only result in one vehicle being sent anyway. Order just a few pizzas, and space them apart in time - long enough that they won't be on the same vehicle, but short enough that the problem won't be discovered before the next vehicle is sent.
