Will "Smart Vehicles" and their marketing cause more crashes

It is inevitable that smart cars will be driving us around in the near future. It will take time to replace the older cars so that eventually all cars will communicate with each other and create a safer driving environment.

On the other note just ask the guy whose Tesla drove itself into the side of 18 wheeler because it could not decipher the white side of the trailer from the sky, oh nevermind he died.
