Most accidents are caused by drunk drivers, distracted drivers, jackass drivers and others, who together still constitute a minority, and there are plenty single-vehicle crashes. 13x improvement over average may still constitute diminished safety for a diligent sober driver.
- ericpauley 7mo agoYes, but Waymo also has to drive on the road with those drivers, and these stats include crashes that are their fault. Diligent drivers get hit by drunk/distracted drivers all the time.
- bryanlarsen 7mo ago13x better than an average that includes drunk, fatigued and distracted drivers would not be very impressive on a closed course. On a real world course where the only way to achieve those kind of numbers is to avoid getting hit by those drunk, fatigued and distracted drivers? Very impressive.
