I never said better than the average driver, I said better than human drivers (preferably by a long shot).
So let’s say that means… Better than 90% of all drivers. That isn’t going to cost lives, it’s going to save them. Not to mention improve traffic flow.

Unlikely…to make an AI car safer than 90% than human drivers means it will respect the speed limit.
That alone causes traffic jams and unsafe conditions around the car as people try to get around it.
A human driver will somewhat go with the flow of traffic.
An AI vehicle just won’t work until it’s a nearly perfect driver that can make human decisions.
That’s not going to happen for a long time. Musk, with his revolving door of low cost engineers is actually making it all worse.
Pull the plug on this experiment and put it back on the test track.
