Despite autopilot’s flaws, this is already true, if we are speaking statistically.

In not entirely sure if I trust the statistics that are available for a couple reasons (and feel free to correct me if I’m wrong):

  1. They are self reported by the manufacturer
  2. Systems like autopilot will revert to manual control when it detects a situation it can’t handle, which means it has the luxury of “not being at fault during the crash” when it may have caused the situation 5 seconds before
  3. It’s comparing to all vehicles instead of just vehicles that have similar non-self-driving but effective safety features
