U.S. to decide soon on GM’s request to deploy cars without steering wheels::U.S. regulators will soon decide on a petition filed by General Motors’ Cruise self-driving technology unit seeking permission to deploy up to 2,500 self-driving vehicles annually without human controls, a top auto safety official said on Wednesday.
Their track record is literally better than the track record of the average human driver. The data doesn’t back up what you’re saying at all
Not sure why you feel the need to insert an unsupported bitchy answer. This isn’t Reddit. No one cares about your karma.
That said, I’ve also read that accidents per thousand operating is higher for autonomous vehicles compared to the average human. I’m not going to look it up for you but if you really want to know then Google it. <shrug>
This is waymo, not cruise, but it’s a comparison between 1 million miles with no humans behind the wheel and the human average. That’s about 80 years worth of human driving, and while that’s not long enough to provide meaningful data on reducing fatalities, they do show that self driving cars reduce both the frequency and severity of more minor accidents
