Geocoded addresses are worthless: where is the front door, where is the back door, maybe there is no door, maybe I don’t want to be dropped off at the door (even with the fact that geocoded addresses are not very accurate outside of highly dense (urban) areas

Who will provide the coordinates, how will the data be securely stored, who will ensure that the data in valid, e.g. an angry employee places his business’s location on train tracks

What happens if the car gets lost! Who will guide it correctly? I can think of infinite scenarios, such that I don’t expect to be in an autonomous car in my lifetime
