Depends on the details of course but I'd expect an autonomous vehicle to be much much better at not hitting things. Especially stationary objects.
People are bad drivers because they have limited vision, limited attention, are emotional and are easily distracted by all kinds of things.
Just because an autonomous car has a similarly bad track record as the average human, doesn't mean it's ready for the road.

The problem is that computer vision is not the same as human vision and at some point we may end up with a situation close to "this car drives itself perfectly apart from running over a completely obvious, well visible person once a year". And it's going to be a really hard one to process for many people.
