Full self driving isn't necessarily safe. What you want is full self stopping. Full self stopping has the potential to dramatically reduce road fatalities.
Rudimentary versions of FSS are fitted to many vehicle models (e.g Toyota Camry) already. Edit: such things as autonomous emergency braking, rear cross traffic alert (and reversing auto-brake), blind spot warning and lane change refusal if there is a vehicle in the blindspot, pedestrian avoidance -- all these and more are available today and all are better than nothing when it comes to reducing accidents.
