I’d say they’re here when the probability of being injured, at every level of severity, is less than that of a human driver, and the occasional “oops we’re stuck in a weird situation” problems (which happen to human taxis too) are similarly infrequent and tolerable enough that people consider the minuscule risk of inconvenience worth the ride.

It's not self driving if the programmer needs to fix it every time it makes a mistake. I don't think you got my point.

  If the fleet drives a million miles between such events, is that good enough for you?

    No, because it's not self driving if it needs to be programmed to fix the mistakes it doesn't even realize it is making.

        Maybe humans aren't self driving. I don't care about that.
