It's neither.

Self-driving cars aren't superior.

There is 1 death in 100 million miles driven on roads; self-driving cars are currently operating around 1 death per million.

Personally, I do not expect self-driving cars this century to get anywhere near human safety levels (assuming cities/etc. remain as-is).

You want to drop some links to back up your claims?

Just a quick google of my comment yields: https://www.rand.org/content/dam/rand/pubs/research_reports/...

I haven't read it all -- my numbers come from another paper, I can't recall. But it's talking in the right ballparks.
