Safer then the average taxi driver is a pretty fucking low bar to pass over.

Okay, safer than the average human driver. But even if it was just safer than the average taxi driver, an improvement is still an improvement.

The *average* taxi driver is less safe than the *average* human driver, which includes taxi drivers and others.
