  below the rate for human drivers…

  As a human driver, you know you have zero free kills. Your car must then be able to resurrect at least one dead person.

    If the total number of road deaths decreases then it’s a net benefit, regardless of whether some were killed by automation or some were killed by human error. I just want the number to decrease. It will never be zero. Don’t make good the enemy of perfect.

      No, I wasn’t talking about any anonymous ‘total number’.

        You’re arguing for no self-driving until it’s perfect, which is insane, so I’m not going to bother responding further. I don’t want this to descend any further into a waste of time.
