In general yes, but it might depend on the pattern of failure - if your self-driving cars hunts me or my family personally, I might have problem with that.
But how can you determine that without releasing it to the wild and waiting for bodies? Worse, say you have a safe system, but you need to modify the network (to fix some bug). How can you determine that the new system is safe enough to put on the road?
