I always wondered how different our auto/road system would be if the NHTSA investigated each and every human driver crash as thoroughly and visibly as they seem to be interested in autonomous driving crashes--and instituted corrective regulatory action on human driving as heavy as we're likely going to see on autonomous driving. Apparently ~2M human crashes/yr in the USA is just a fact of life, but a handful of autonomous crashes/yr warrants investigation? |

Investigating is fine. You can’t patch every driver in America when you find an edge case; this is a good use of public resources.
What we should guard against is overreacting in response to these incidents. America by and large seems to be responding to this reasonably.
