A comment on Waymo says insurance data shows its driverless cars are safer than humans. Parent comment
Is this place completely car free? Because otherwise, replacing the remaining cars with self-driving cars would have significant benefits:
* Less space needed for parking.
* Pedestrians and cyclists can move safely because cars follow the traffic rules.
* Less cost for police, first responders and medical care because of fewer traffic accidents.
If my city replaced all human-driven cars with self-driving cars today, I would actually cycle and walk more. Because I would feel safer to do so.
And I am surely not the only one.
