Most fatalities happen off highways, despite highways accounting for a disproportionate number of miles driven.

Accidents still happen, but it’s hard to believe they would be less safe than human drivers, when most accidents are caused by fatigue, reckless driving, illegal maneuvers, and unusual driving on the part of the operator. It’s even harder to believe that it wouldn’t become safer with effort, when both the road and the behavior of cars is far more predictable.
