We should be able to look at frequency and severity of non-fatal accidents too. Those happen a lot more often.&lt;p&gt;For example, accidents that occur at 35 MPH or less are much less likely to result in a fatality or major injury, due to the amount of kinetic energy that a human body can safely dissipate. So if Google cars have even slightly better braking or speed control, you&amp;#x27;re going to see an improvement. Looking at the average speed at which accidents occur would be useful information.</text><parent_chain><item><author>dzdt</author><text>Human drivers average about 1 fatality per 100 million vehicle miles traveled.
