You assume that a driverless mile replaces a human driven mile. I'm not sure that's a reasonable assumption. (I'd assume people would drive more miles if they don't need to worry about parking or paying for a human driver)

Well its just an example to clarify that what is needed is some context for the incidence rate (i.e something to normalise for a fair comparison).
