Technically he is right.

I am on the Innovation Board for an umbrella group heavily involved with all aspects of road way safety in all fifty states at the local, state and federal level: American Traffic Safety Services Association.

There are a number of initiatives aimed at coping with the largest single cause of traffic accidents: Impaired and distracted drivers. We are also looking at ways to solve the traffic situations where I&D drivers have the most difficulty.

In the aviation world, auto pilots are so much better than a human pilot in terms of pure piloting skill in non-emergency situations you really only need the pilot to placate the passengers...and I am a pilot.

For every Sully there is a 100 instances of pilot error being the sole causal factor in the accident.
