      Yeah, but a car running over a woman, dragging her twenty feet and parking on top of her, could easily have killed her.

        Yeah but equally you could argue that if all cars were self-driving this accident wouldn’t have happened. It involved a human making a mistake first.

        I kind of feel like we’re getting the wrong takeaway from self driving cars.

          What kind of mistake can a pedestrian make to cause a self-driving car run over them, and how does making more cars self-driving prevent that mistake?
