I think my comment has been read as being "pro self-driving", whereas I intended it to be anti.

Self-driving cars have already killed many more people than 1/100mill -- it's about 1 in 1 mil iirc.

My comment was to frame the saftey of driving in the relevant units: amount of driving. When scaled by the right factor, "human driving" is incredibly safe by comparison.



You have to be including Tesla's not actually self driving to get to that statistic for self driving cars.
