> If I see data that a global fleet of self driving cars will only kill 1.30 million people instead Sure, if I see that then you are right! But: accidents are mostly caused by irresponsible human drivers, not by good drivers and self driving cars have trouble handling normal situations, let alone dangerous drivers. So by replacing randomly from the pool of good+bad drivers you won’t meaningfully decrease accident rates, you might even increase it. Call me when we can selectively replace bad/irresponsible drivers! But then no need for self-driving as well. Especially when we incorporate the actually useful features like auto-emergency breaking, lane assist etc to “normal” cars will give you all the benefits of self driving, without the problems.
