Because we necessarily need higher standards for a self-driving system than for humans. A human failure is isolated; a machine failure is systemic.
I, as a somewhat normal driver, am not personally at much risk if some other driver decides to drive on the rails. That won't be true if I'm in a Waymo and there's nothing I can do about its bugs.
And I don't blame people who are skeptical that Waymo will be properly punished. In fact, do you suppose they were punished here?
