    We don’t look at car features in isolation. e.g. seatbelt or airbag could cause injuries too in a crash, but we have them because it’s better than not having them.

    In the same token self driving doesn’t have to be perfect, it just need to be better than humans. I don’t know what Tesla’s number looks like, just speaking generally.

      As a motorcyclist and bicyclist, I am not afraid of getting hurt by failures of other people’s seatbelts and airbags.

      I know what you’re getting at, but there’s more at stake here.
