No, the main obstacle to self-driving cars is the law. And it's a critical issue.
Who, exactly, is at fault when a self-driving car causes an accident? The owner? The passenger? The car maker? The software programmer? No state currently has laws in place that address this issue.
And make no mistake, there WILL be accidents caused by software bugs/hardware failures.
