Self driving cars don't have to be 100% equal to humans in all circumstances. Some of these edge cases are things like construction workers or traffic cops guiding traffic. That's a damn hard thing to get right. But you could instead just give the traffic cop a radio clicker.
The edge cases are not going to be adverse driving conditions, which machines actually handle better with superior reaction times and finer control.

People still feel that "it won't happen to them" because they have agency and can drive safer than others, it isn't neccrary true but you give up on this agency when you let a computer drive. You can drive in a way which will reduce you likelihood of being in a fatal accident if all autonomous cars have say a 2.5% fail rate on decisions it becomes just a matter of time.
