The problem with autonomous vehicles is interfacing with humans.
Once you remove humans from vehicles altogether they will become far more efficient.

The linked story is a case in point, the bike was struck because the human controlling the bike was unable to react in time to the machine's change of decision.
Had the bike been controlled by a machine the collision would not have happened because the machine can sense and react at a rate which humans are simply incapable of.
This enhanced decision rate is why ABS keeps a bike upright when doing a full emergency stop on greasy wet cobbles.
Abs is a fairly straightforward system though
