Autonomous vehicle safety does seem to miss the rigour of driverless 
trains despite missing the advantage of being confine to tracks.

AFAI can see, being confined to tracks is the source of *all* the safety 
advantages that autonomous trains have over autonomous cars. It solves a 
problem almost entirely in physical engineering. No-one in their right 
mind should expect software engineering to do it better without tracks.


regatrds,
