> Consider another problem the vehicle already solves. The AV wisely yields to those running a red light, even though the AV has the right of way. If it didn't, but was instead frequently t-boned...

Is this inconsistent with a choice not to avoid rear…
DO hold the brake if you are about to be rear ended. It results in less acceleration, and you are less likely to be projected into an obstacle.
The kind of things I wish driving school could teach you. I don't know how, a set of busted cars on a driving loop with mild collision so you'd know what it feels and how to react. Kind like wet roads and collision avoidance classes.
