Are self-driving cars already safer than human drivers?

I learned a lot by reading dozens of Waymo and Cruise crash reports.

The fact that self driving cars exist is an admission that driving a car can really suck. Navigating busy suburbs and cities in a car is a stressful experience, especially when people are commuting to or from work.

I don’t think cars should be completely eliminated, as they have their place, but the existence of self driving cars is strong evidence of the insanity of the car being the only feasible way to get around some parts of the world.

    I have also found this to be true. What I don’t like is that there is no way to be certain that they do see you.

    As a pedestrian/cyclist, it is very easy to see if the driver sees you/doesn’t see you. And cross accordingly.

    Self driving cars, you simply have to hope and pray while you cross.
