        below the rate for human drivers…

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

          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.

            total number of road deaths

            No, I wasn’t asking about any anonymous ‘total number’. Just you, specifically, and your car, specifically.

              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.
