You reckon self-driving cars are going to be safer? I have a 1998 Range Rover that barely has *any* software on board, never mind things that will shit a brick because of the next Leftpad Incident.
Pretty much. Current Tesla seems to be nightmarish, but still within general range of some of the less good human drivers.
I'm still super excited about the tech, because I am very clumsy and have no business even trying to drive, and a car is one of the highest modern luxuries out there. Not that I expect to be able to afford it when it comes out....
The problem is that its safety is being compared to human drivers on every possible kind of road, when it only works on straight well-lit motorways with everyone travelling at the same speed in the same direction, which tends to be when human drivers don't have accidents at all and when Telsas make an absolute fucking beeline for emergency vehicles.
