This is exactly like a new, or student driver.

While I agree with your overall point, this is not true. AIs often fail in very inhuman ways. Their "thought process" and learning capabilities resemble ours only superficially.

That said, humans also make a ton of lethal mistakes on the road and I do think we're getting close to a point where it might even out on balance. But people are more forgiving of relatable human failure modes than bizarre machine ones.
