Why Autonomous Vehicles (AV's) should NOT scare you (hint: humans are horrendous drivers)

That situation has been the topic of many talks and debriefs since I have been here, but unfortunately I cannot say anything about our policies if it is not public information. I can say we haven't had any incidents yet in which we saw this first hand, so I am not sure how common this situation will actually be although I understand it is one of the biggest hurdles AVs will face. I can say our AVs are generally programmed to be more passive in any situation than any human will be. This is not always good but I feel this is how AVs will be tested until the technology is perfect.
