Would you apply the same standard to human drivers?

Yes. It's called a driving license, in many countries it's only delivered after you show you can drive safely.

On a more similar note, that's what we apply to aircraft. They are illegal to fly until proven safe to the authorities (ie. certified).

The same standard is applied to human drivers. I think it is called a "driving test".
