At current ride volumes it would take a leading robotaxi fleet about twenty years without a single fatality to show it is as safe as the average human driver. (opens korrents.com)
“At current deployment rates it will take Waymo about 20 years with ZERO fatalities to show they are net as safe as average human driver fatality rates (including the old cars, impaired drivers, etc. in that comparison…”
-
Nobody has driven enough miles to show that robotaxis save lives, so the claim that they already do is not supported by the data. (opens korrents.com)
“But their latest study is for only 7.1 million miles. They need something like 40 times more data prove they are actually saving lives with statistical confidence (likely even more).”

The self-driving industry's strategy of answering criticism with 'we are saving lives' has failed, and it will have to change both how it deploys and how it talks. (opens korrents.com)
“At a higher level, the real event was a catastrophic failure of the industry's strategy of relentlessly shouting as loud as they can "Hey, get off our case, we're busy saving lives here!"”
