Why? If they're overall much safer, then that seems like a net win to me—even if their failure modes are not identical to human ones.
- ScottBurson 10y agoI could be wrong, but I just don't think people are going to accept that. It's related to the illusion of control that driving provides: everyone thinks they're a safer-than-average driver. So even if self-driving cars are safe enough for everyone else, they're not safe enough for me. There will, of course, be exceptions, as we've already seen (poor guy).
