What structural changes? Considering that self-driving cars are already running daily in many cities, those changes must be fairly minor since they've already been implemented in those cities.

You need those structural changes to make their fatality rates as small as regular cars.

Right now self-driving cars aren't viable in the real-world due to their extremely high fatality rate, which are comparable to motorcycles.

Meanwhile, there are several car models with ZERO fatalities.

Tesla is lacking static obstacle detection. You can't expect it to be safer than a human until they fix this glaring issue.
