But the thousands of accidents you are referring to all have a separate individual people tied to it held responsible (individually). You wouldn’t have this benefit in the autonomous utopia.You mean one one death, as compared to the thirty-eight thousand every year with manual driving? You don't know what you are talking about. Hundreds of people can die in autonomous vehicle crashes a year and we will still be saving tens of thousands of lives.
Autonomous driving will not be perfect. There will be accidents and deaths (there already have been). The positive impact on the roadway fatality rate will be significant.
I’ll just stick to my “theory” that history repeats itself, and man can’t control ****.
