I'm fine with that. Motorcycle riders kill almost exclusively themselves.

  To add an actual data point, in New Zealand bike rider fatalities are not the motor bike riders fault about 30% of the time and in non fatal crashes the figure is about 40%. www.transport.govt.nz/assets/Uploads/Research/Documents/Motorcycles-15.pdf

    "in New Zealand bike rider fatalities are not the motor bike riders fault about 30% of the time and in non fatal crashes the figure is about 40%." In Lithuania it's even worse, around 60% (2014 data).

    My point was not that motorcycle drivers are worse drivers than car drivers. It's probably the other way around. But with computer drivers very soon much safer than human drivers, I'm very eager to get all trucks and cars driven by computers because it significantly reduce the risk of me or someone I care about being killed in traffic. But if someone wants to continue to steer their motorcycle themselves, I'm fine with that because it is unlikely that I'll be seriously hurt in a collision between my car and a motorcycle.
