In order for it to happen, there will be massive amounts of testing and the final product will include failsafes and multiple redundancy. So it should (in theory) be way safer than the average idiot driver. However, it won’t happen on any real scale so it’s not going to matter much in the long run – peak oil and the coming collapse of western civilization will eventually kill car culture. (Electric cars are not the answer either, but it would take way too much time to explain why here).
