I said nothing about expecting self driving to be perfect - I actually agree with you on that point. As long as there are humans involved on the roads, automated driving will be involved in accidents.

But look at the post where I brought up the story;

Well look at how many decades have we been trying to "get the bugs out" of human drivers? And how many millions have died?
At one time there where 3 cars in Kansas City, all owned by doctors. 2 of them collided hard enough had to be hauled away by teams.

I simply asked about your source of the accident you referred to because it is very similar to a story of "the first car accident" describing two cars colliding - however upon research, the accident was a single car accident where the driver hit a tree stump and destroyed a tire. Not exactly the "only two cars in town and they hit each other" disaster it's made out to be.

And here something is missed. there where 3 cars in Kansas City, I have no doubt that before 2 cars collided, there where hundreds, if not thousands of accidents where cars hit other things. Also I would be surprised if each other was the first thing the 2 cars hit. And I bet KC was not the location for the first 2 car collision...
