8 million miles in fully-autonomous mode. I'll repeat my favorite statistic - the safety rate for auto driving in the US is about 1.5 deaths per 100 million passenger miles. That is, Waymo is about 12.5X from having driven enough to see a single death on average, if they're driving as well as a human. Not enough data. Still, I imagine we'll fast-track this into place with no regulatory oversight, because $$$$$$$$$.
- lern_too_spel 8y ago0.7% of car accidents in Florida are fatal. That works out to more than one accident every half a million miles for humans.
