Hmm is he referring to the ability released to the public to date or their capability in general that isn&#x27;t yet accessible by the general public? If it&#x27;s the former that doesn&#x27;t make sense so I&#x27;m going to assume the latter.<p>Considering in 2014 there were 32,675 motor vehicle deaths, 2,300,000 motor vehicle related injuries and 6,100,000 reported accidents in general (which means a likely higher number of accidents though not sure by how much) [1] it would not surprise me that even buggy software could do a better job than humans who tend to become distracted with almost anything. Though I&#x27;m not sure about extreme conditions like snow, heavy fog and rain, etc.<p>As much as I love driving (and I really do) I can&#x27;t wait for autonomous vehicles. Considering it&#x27;s a, if I remember correctly, a 1.7% chance in your lifetime that you&#x27;ll be killed in an auto accident in the United States (and higher of a chance that you&#x27;ll known someone killed) that&#x27;s just way to high of a number for me (especially being a Dad).<p>[1] <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www-nrd.nhtsa.dot.gov&#x2F;Pubs&#x2F;812219.pdf" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www-nrd.nhtsa.dot.gov&#x2F;Pubs&#x2F;812219.pdf</a>
