The sort of idealist version of product development where automotive products came out without safety problems didn't happen with any other automotive technology. Early airbags were unsafe, early ABS was crap, drum brakes couldn't stop your car very well, there used to be no such thing as a crumple zone, and the list goes on and on. I'd rather be on the road next to someone using a self-driving mode than someone driving drunk.
