Hum, It depends. In absolute terms, yes, of course. But 9 accidents by machines among 100 drivers aren't necessarily an improvement in all aspects over 10 accidents caused by humans among 100 drivers. In the first case, we "remove" people at random from a pool of drivers good and bad, so we have more percentage of bad drivers after all. In the second we remove much more bad drivers than good drivers so is much more safe for the rest. Humans can learn from past experiences and apply creative solutions to complex problems, machines are slower in this sense.
