Comment on Tesla Robotaxis Reportedly Crashing at a Rate That's 4x Higher Than Humans
hector@lemmy.today 13 hours agoWhat do you mean, you are comparing dangerous driving spots to safe driving spots. No shit the highway entry ramps have more fatal accidents than the leisure cruise in the 8 lane road from the airport to the hotel. And yes, human drivers on that leisure cruise would have a different rate of accidents than on the death ramps on the expressways.
Not acknowledging that point, and misrepresenting it, doesn’t speak well to your credibility here, it’s a simple and unarguable point.

I provided a counterpoint and now you’ve moved your goalposts to just ramps. The fact is that there is no reason to believe the roads Waymos utilize are generally safer than roads on average. But that doesn’t really even matter because the studies that have been done about this do account for different types of environments anyway and point to Waymos having fewer accidents.
