I can appreciate the claim that driving is an art, full of edge cases. But that claim on its own conceals the reality that <i>humans</i> are extremely bad at it. A ludicrous number of people die in automobile accidents. While it may be a long while before self-driving cars can match the prowess of an excellent driver, much less a professional one, I doubt we&#x27;re far off from being able to exceed the ability of the <i>average</i> driver.
