It wouldn't need to be able to safely drive itself, just safely pull over.

Leaving a passenger in a stopped car in the middle of an intersection is not safe. And your logic is circular, the car hypothetically fails and calls for remote assistance, and the link gets cut, the car “safe stops” and youre right back at square one and need to send someone out still. I dont think its as easy as youre characterizing

> you're right back at square one and need to send someone out still.

So either you're no worse off, or the link is fine and you don't need to send someone out at all. Sounds pretty good to me!

Or the link cuts out in the middle of the dangerous maneuver the car decided it can't handle and now it can't safely pull over.

Like I said originally, if it was safe for the car to be driving itself it already would be.
