    Accidents per mile is a terrible argument. People that drive huge distances on open highways will appear to be safer than people driving mostly traffic dense city miles regardless of their actual skill.

      Not the perfect measure but much better than just a figure hanging in the air like this article has it. You’ll have to compare the number of “autopilot” accidents to the number of human accidents or the number doesn’t mean anything.
