No, and that's good.
Human drivers behave mostly like humans, even the worst ones. We all have millenia of evolution fine-tuned to recognize human behavior based on the most subtle of cues. So human bad driving is recognizable and thus far more avoidable.
AI drivers are effectively an alies species who make errors that make no sense whatsoever to a human mind, thus they behave, for all practical purposes, apparently completely randomly.
