Wouldn't it depend on the type of accident? From what I understand the most common case is that an autonomous vehicle will not proceed when a human thought it would (eg. at an intersection), resulting in the human hitting the back of the autonomous vehicle at low speed. That type of accident is preventable through patience and not very severe. It seems fine to me to have more of those if it results in any decrease in more severe accidents.
