Of course. How about the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration?

A 40% reduction still means plenty of anecdotes for media fodder.
There may come a time when autonomous vehicles make driving so safe that the only data we can and should rely on is the rare anecdote like this and the subsequent NTSB report, like airlines. But while it’s always good to take seriously the lessons that NTSB’s targeted investigations provide, a lot more people will die tragic but less-publicized deaths if we stop any company from deploying an imperfect but still overall beneficial technology.
