Cruise recalls all self-driving cars after grisly accident and California ban | All 950 of the General Motors subsidiary’s autonomous cars will be taken off roads for a software update::All 950 of the General Motors subsidiary’s autonomous cars will be taken off roads for a software update
Emphasis goes on “even though”.
As in “At GM we’re so benevolent that we’re doing a software update even though we think this will only kill someone every 10m miles (which we consider an acceptable murder rate for our cars)”.

You missed the part where this was specifically about their car dragging the person for 20ft after the crash and pinning them under the wheel?

No one was killed in the accident they are stating the rate of.
Yeah, but a car running over a woman, dragging her twenty feet and parking on top of her, could easily have killed her.

What kind of mistake can a pedestrian make to cause a self-driving car run over them, and how does making more cars self-driving prevent that mistake?
