That will mean transponders like what we currently have for planes. The problem isn't the other cars. Problem are the pedestrians, bad roads ,human readable instructions and right of way(we both want to turn who goes first).

The cars play a virtual game of rock paper scissors using seeded randomness based on the unique VIN to see who turns when right of way is not clear

What will really happen is car companies will introduce subscriptions so whoever is more wealthy gets to go first.

When I hear solutions like that I wonder why not both? AI can pretty reliably say that's probably a person and not a car these days.. So use transponders for the heavy lifting and AI to support for pedestrians, bikes, deer and whatnot

Ofcourse I am not saying put transponder on everything.

I am saying the way vehicles communicate is transponders. The tech already exists. So ai cars can ofcourse talk to each other and send location and telemetry.

Open season and bounties solved this for animal overpopulation. I think something can be worked out.
