None of them while a car was moving in autonomous mode*

As I recall there were collisions where the autonomous car was sitting still. Others while in manual mode. Zero the fault of autonomous drivers, so far.




Regardless, autonomous vehicles will improve at a staggering pace due to computing power available to them, and sensors rapidly developing.

~33K [1] deaths a year from car accidents currently due to human drivers. I doubt autonomous vehicles can do worse than that.
