I feel like the question is not if "driverless vehicles = safety" but when. So, all other things being equal, the quicker we get to that point, the more lives we can save. Obviously not all other things are equal, and potentially we could create greater loss of life by attempting to get self-driving cars on the road too quickly. But that is the nature of problem: how do we avoid moving too quickly while recognizing that the current danger that is human drivers should be removed from the equation as quickly as feasible.
