Can't wait for them to cut the human fleet in half once they see how many crashes people cause!
Damn if only there were a way to get around in San Francisco that wasn't driving or being driven!
So, how many other car crashes happened in the same time frame?
These crashes are all by the same "driver". If one person crashed two cars in a day, don't you think they should stop driving for a bit?
Hm, that's actually a pretty good analogy. I haven't thought of it that way before.
No it's not. If that one person crashed twice after 500 trips and everyone else is crashing once after 200 trips, I'm still taking the person whose average crashes is more than two times less often.
Not if they did significantly more trips than the chances of a normal person crashing twice.
You know how many trips these cars drive per day? Please enlighten us. If you don't have any sources, stop making things up with no evidence.
I mean, that argument could work both ways right?
How is that in any way comparable?
Don’t think we or they (autonomous vehicles.) are ready for it…
The only way they ever will be is with lots and lots of training.
They are more ready than human drivers.
