Some Laws Kill
Car accidents kill 100 Americans every day.
But now an amazing solution is available: self-driving cars.
Robotaxis like Google-owned Waymo, for example.
Passengers who try them, like them. Wherever robotaxis are allowed, ridership increases fast. Two years ago, there were 50,000 trips per week -- today 500,000.
"The car did a better job than if somebody was driving!" says a passenger in my new video.
Waymo claims its cars are "10 times safer" than human-driven ones. I wouldn't believe that if insurance companies, with their own money at stake, didn't agree.
Reinsurance News reports Waymo's had an "88% reduction in property damage claims and a 92% reduction in bodily injury claims."
"We have the data," says Adam Thierer, author of "Permissionless Innovation." "94% of all accidents are attributable to human error ... We can address one of the leading killers of Americans!"
Unfortunately, some politicians say you shouldn't be allowed to try........
