so here is something interesting for you. I work for a mining company that has autonomous and human driven trucks on the site (open pit mining). after running the stats on efficiencies and wear and tear on the trucks we found that: In the mornings (or start of shift) humans are far more efficient and cause less wear and tear on the trucks, towards the end of the shift the autonomous trucks are more efficient and wear the trucks out less. At the beginning of the swing ( 8 days on 6 days off ) the human driven trucks are far more efficient and cause less wear and tear. Towards the end of a swing the Autonomous trucks are more efficient and less wearing on the trucks. In wet weather humans are far more efficient and less wearing on the trucks, on hot dry days autonomous trucks are more efficient and wear less on the trucks. At the end of the day, autonomous are more consistent but humans are always better but they wear out themselves or get board or get lazy and take shortcuts when its nearing end of swing or end of shift or when the conditions are hot and dusty. I cant see why this wouldn't be replicated on open roads by every day humans and every day autonomous vehicles.
