Will automated vehicles be
safer than conventional vehicles?
Today the world is witnessing rapid change in many
of the large-scale systems of which we humans are a
part. Nowhere is this more apparent than in our
transportation system where advanced technologies,
including automation, are increasingly being
integrated at many levels with the hope (and
aspiration) of improving safety, among other goals.
One of the critically important questions that has
emerged about advanced technologies in
transportation is how to test the actual effects of
these advanced systems on safety, particularly how
to evaluate the safety of highly automated driving
systems.
Richard Young's Critical Analysis of Prototype
Autonomous Vehicle Crash Rates does a deep dive
into these questions by reviewing and then critically
analyzing the first six scientific studies of AV crash
rates. These six studies, published from 2015 to 2018,
investigated whether the crash rates of prototype
AVs with a backup safety driver were lower or higher
than the crash rates of CVs. Four studies concluded
that AVs increased the crash rate compared to CVs,
while the two other studies concluded that AVs
decreased it, sometimes after examining almost
identical AV data.
" I attempted to resolve this discrepancy by
critically analyzing each study to reduce systematic
errors, biases, and best practice violations, " said
