    How about we:

    1. Don’t let random customers test it and instead use heavily trained, specialized test drivers
    2. Require permitting and, e.g., an obstacle course before letting a company’s software be randomly updated and thrown on the road?

    Why is there this constant false dichotomy implying that the only way to test self driving cars is a wild west of no regulation?

    And also who said that self driving cars are safer than humans? Tesla’s numbers are all statistical lies (in fact Teslas were recently shown to have the most accidents), Cruise just shutdown in SF because they were a liability, and Waymo is heavily limited in its time/weather/areas for driving.
