The few states that have laws on the books for autonomous cars permit them only with a driver behind the controls. Even Google's on-road cars are designed to warn the driver if they need to relinquish control.

I don't see any automaker releasing anything truely "hands off" till the laws are in place to protect them from liability.

What you'll see is a lot of really advanced "cruise control" type systems first. Right now they will accellerate and decelerate to follow traffic, it's not a tall order to move onto following the lanes. But like a new driver you will still be responsible.
