ARE SELF-DRIVING CARS ALREADY SAFER THAN HUMAN DRIVERS?

Summary from the TLDR newsletter

Waymo and Cruise have driven a combined total of over 8 million driverless miles. The two companies have reported 102 crashes, with most of the crashes being low-speed collisions that did not pose a serious safety risk and a large majority being the fault of the other driver. It will still take hundreds of millions more driverless miles to answer the question of whether driverless cars are safer than human drivers, but the evidence is starting to pile up.
