Self-driving cars have lower crash rates per mile driven than human-driven cars.

the verdict
INSUFFICIENT LEANING
Recorded sources
2 sources for · 0 against

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that Self-driving cars have lower crash rates per mile driven than human-driven cars?

Unclear. Two items report that Google's self-driving test cars had a lower police-reportable crash rate per million miles than human drivers in Mountain View, California, during 2009-2015, though the difference was not statistically significant. This covers only one test program in one city over one period, not self-driving cars generally.
