This is a great step forward, autonomous driving only needs to be better than the average human. The average human is often too busy texting, or eating to pay attention. Humans do very stupid things in cars, it's a part of why I won't really consider living anywhere where I have to own one. Holy crap, you'll see people literally just rear-end each other at stoplights because you want to keep itching closer. One of the most common complaints about automated cars is they go The speed limit, I recall once I was literally at the exact speed limit for the highway and I flicked on the cruise control. Immediately a driver behind me started honking and flicking me off. Like holy shit I'm not from around here. I'm not going to risk getting pulled over because you're 5 minutes late to brunch or something. The average human is such a horrible driver. I don't think Tesla bots can do much worse. The times the Tesla AI fails are very rare and far between, the times some idiot human decides they're going to rear end someone, or change lanes to late are very common. All hell the robocar overlords
