Anything is safer than having a transit system full of the retards I see driving. Stand at any intersection for 5 minutes, and watch elderly women that are 900 years old and barely able to turn the wheel... young women with 900 children in the back of her Suburban paying no attention to the road, and certainly has no ability to control that vehicle in an emergency or evasive maneuver situation... and these comprise the MAJORITY of drivers.
Removing the incompetence equation, let's talk about maintenance. How do you know the stoner behind you in his jalopy even has brakes that function? He can't even afford to change his tires. You don't know anything about the maintenance of his vehicle until he slams into the back of you at 50 mph, taking out you and the pedestrian you were stopping for.
So yeah, clearly a fully autonomous transit system would be safer than the bullshit we have right now.
Easily 95% of society should not have ever been issued a license.
