And how many accidents are there in Wisconsin in January with 8 inches of snow on the ground? We don’t have to perfect automated driving; we just have to get it better than the average human… and that’s a pretty low bar. And we don’t even have to automate driving everywhere. Who cares if we can’t automate it for 5%? Can we automate it for 95%? Hell, if we can automate it for 30-40% with a lower accident rate… that’s already a win.
