If autonomous driving can be delivered with accident-causing failure rates similar to those of general manufacturer defects (i.e., much lower odds than accidents caused by human error), then I think that would be sufficient. But if say we go from ~35k human-caused road deaths/year to ~10k autonomous-driving caused deaths/year, that may be seen as unacceptably high.
