Hopefully any autonomous system will be able to make the call of whether it is safe to drive itself - whether because of heavy rain, blizzard, tornado etc. Some situations are just not safe to drive a car in, regardless of who's driving.

"Let's go, car, my child is bleeding to death and I have to get him to the hospital now!"

"I'm sorry, Dave, I can't do that. It's raining."

"Are you kidding me?! He's dying! Go! Now!"

"Did you try applying pressure to the wound?"

Let's hope that we never have cars that decide it's not safe for us to drive, "regardless of who's driving."
