“Even if autonomous cars are 10 times safer than those driven by humans, it takes one spectacular incident to make it much harder to win widespread acceptance,” he said.Separately Zetsche said Daimler was considering introducing China Wheel Hub Bearing fuel cells to power electric buses and trucks.“We (in the industry) have a responsibility to educate people about the benefits and the risks of the technology,” said Chris Urmson, chief executive of self-driving cars start-up Aurora andelf-driving vehicles are more dangerous than those driven by people, while two-thirds would not buy a fully autonomous vehicle, a Reuters/Ipsos poll found this week.Daimler Chief Executive Dieter Zetsche said on Tuesday the debate surrounding the safety of Boeing’s aircraft shows how hard it can be to win public acceptance for autonomous car technology.“What is very important is the psychological dimension.

Regulators for their part have yet to settle on rules applying to more futuristic self-driving cars that would be completely autonomous, not even, for example, having a steering wheel.Companies developing self-driving technology have put test fleets on public streets, while Alphabet Inc’s Waymo unit has deployed a small fleet of self-driving vans to provide rides for customers in Arizona.The auto industry should introduce autonomous systems in stages, as a way to build acceptance for complex but potentially safety-enhancing automotive technology, Zetsche said at the Auto Motor and Sport conference in Stuttgart. If you look at what is happening with Boeing then you can imagine what happens when such a system has an incident,” Zetsche said, commenting on the motor industry’s efforts to develop autonomous cars.Accidents, including a fatalit control system is safe
