more people are injured on the fucking toilet for fuck's sake

that's *injuries* on toilets versus fatalities with cars. and that doesn't imply that we shouldn't improve toilet safety if possible, either. for cars, that's 1 death every 15 minutes, which means about 4 people have already been killed since you posted the 100 per day statistic, and almost 150 people have been killed since this thread started. (just in the US; more like 35x that amount world-wide.)

also, note that I don't think I've said anything in the first place about making normal driving illegal, I don't know where you got that. I'm saying if *introducing* self-driving cars lowers fatalities, then it's worth it even if self-driving cars have problems. in other words, maybe they don't have to be perfect to still be used, if they're dangerous but nevertheless safer. because I was originally saying that I can't imagine how they'd be safe. the answer being, maybe they don't have to be as long as they're safe-er.
