> I would wager they are far from the median human driver, and absolutely nowhere close to the top 10% of human drivers.
I think you would likely lose that wager. In the information Waymo has published about their safety methodology, they benchmark themselves against an always-attentive driver (this already rules out most accidents), which they still outperform by a large margin. Even a driver who is never distracted doesn't have constant 360 degree vision or near-instant reaction times.
