When a service is willing to take responsibility for collisions and driving violations

Devil's advocate: it's kinda hard to pin the responsibility on Tesla when at the end of the day there was a person driving and the driver's always responsible.

I'm not disagreeing with you, I'm on team ban-human-drivers

Ideally, we'd get to the point where the driver merely directs the vehicle to where it wants to go, and then the computer system works out all the pathfinding and maneuvering, so that yes, any instance where a vehicle avoidably collides with another thing can be regarded as a malfunction.
