For me the question is how high is the error rate for a non drunk non sleepy non elderly non reckless human, since that is what my car would replace.

in my 20s you would need to bring the reckless back in.

Problem is, you are not alone on the road. And if somebody else does something really stupid, you can die as a consequence, without any chance to avoid it.

We are definitely not there yet, but I think of myself as a decent driver, and some assistant tools on high-end models are way better (just faster, probably) than me predicting stuff. For the first year this summer, I've driven a car that was quicker than I in an emergency break situation: while I started breaking, it depressed the pedal, and I was quite surprised, 'cause the car in front of me didn't begin breaking yet.

There's also the fact though, that if you're elderly you can't really avoid being a worse driver. I know particularly in rural areas where there's no public transportation, a lot of elderly people would accept an error rate higher than what their own driving used to be. It seems pretty tough for the rest of us to deny them access to a technology like that while it's in the interstitial stage.

Only if you’re the only driver being replaced.
