I agree. That will need to be proven. But when they are better than, say 90% of all drivers, it would make sense to switch. Waiting until they're "perfect" (which is the requirement I object to), is just wasting needless lives.

Depends on what happens when they make errors. Is it comparable to human errors or are they prone to making worse mistakes than humans on average in terms of the conseguences.

They might be 99.99% perfect but in 0.01% of cases cause massive car pileups in motorways (for example) due to reasons.

A proper risk analysis based on a controlled transition would be better to be done first.
