Waymo have driven 20 million miles autonomously since 2009, and as of late 2020 claim 74,000 of those were done completely driverless. They're still a far cry from being common, but they're here and they're impressively safe.
But what is the “miles on straight-ahead, well-lit US highway” vs. “kms on random European regional road” ratio?

Sounds familiar
That, but in the opposite direction.
Decades of promises of self-driving cars. And still nothing able to drive without a driver.
There have been small improvements...cars that have autonomous abilities in some cases.
But overhauling the entire driving fleet of the world to use 5-year-old technology....it's not a realistic expectation.
There are smaller, more practical expectations.
