By comparison, 5,376 pedestrians were killed by people-drive cars in

It’s not helpful to focus a single accident—this is a “man bites dog”
story that triggers all sorts of worries about technology gone wrong.
The facts, however, might indicate that, mile for mile,
computer-driven cars are safer than people-driven. More research and
work is needed, but overall I for one am hopeful for a future in which
safer cars drive themselves.
Since computer driven cars are basically still in the laboratory I think
it's premature to say they "are safer". They "aren't" anything at all
yet, just a lab experiment.
