What we really need is a side-by-side comparison of hardware in the loop simulations & actual ADAS equipped cars, for all levels of autonomy with human drivers for the same situation.

Safety boards of all countries should have autonomous cars and drivers react to real-life accidents and show how each would perform, thereby instilling confidence in public minds and making them aware of human driver lapses as well.

Driving safely needs to be about both - rules to be followed and how to react in adverse situations, the latter of which is never tested rigorously when giving out driving licences.
