> However, the lives lost in autonomous accidents will be a different set of people than those that would have died in human driven accidents. That's an interesting insight into part of the problem, thanks for pointing it out. Indeed in America if you ride a motorcycle but don't ride drunk, don't ride unlicensed, don't ride an unregistered bike, and do wear a helmet, you are orders of magnitude less likely to die because you are in a statistcally safer demographic of riders. Yet, any one of the riders in that safer demographic could still be one of the ones hit by a red light runner and killed without their blame. We would definitely feel that death more tragic and senseless.
