A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Are you talking about AVs or about humandrivers, which drive drunk, been overtired, after a bed night, emotionally, texting during driving etc?
those things are also illegal, mind you
some are, some are not, but they happen.
my point was, there are some cases where human drivers act better (yet), but there are a lot of other cases where they act worse (for many different reasons). And if a single indirectly lethal case means that "Those damn things are not ready to be used on public roads.", then human drivers are not ready either - they are responsible for much more lethal cases (per whatever unit you count).
