I think I mentioned this elsewhere: It is not about the exact stat comparison between self driving cars and humans. It is actually about 1) the perceived and real adaptability of humans. (given an 'unknown' situation, what does the machine do?) 2) Non epidemic nature of faults in humans. (one version update bug nuking all teslas - we have seen this happen in software, no reason they can't happen in self driving software) 3. Non epidemic nature of coordinated events in humans (GPS satellites fail or leap seconds occur and suddenly all self driving cars go nuts - usually doesn't happen amongst humans). 4. Ethical decision making concerns from machines which are considered 'cold' and 'calculating' and whether that can be construed as murder. (Would the machine choose to kill the pedestrian family over car's current occupants in a purely two choice scenario?) 5. Degree of 'control' considerations. (Would you enjoy a remote turn off switch that denies you entry to your house / mobility etc.) 6. Anonymity considerations. (That's why money economy is still a thing. Possibility of 3rd party tracking vs. knowing about tracking are two different things). FWIW, I am not against either situations, I am just collating info :)
