Obviously, cars will not become autonomous until the research shows that it is more safe than manual driving.

You got that right, but you missed one point, it won't be research that puts them on the road, not even close.

5 million BOND.

Researchers don't pay lawsuits, and lawyers run everything. Next to lawyers are insurance companies, whose job is to assign a cost to risk factors, and courts who assign blame. Computers don't die in accidents or get disfigured for life or exist in permanent pain with suicide or drug induced semi comas as their only option.

We get it; your intuition is faster than a computer and better than other humans.

I doubt you get it at all, my driving skills are no secret, the same knowledge is available to you or anyone else who is willing to put forth the effort. Maybe you do, maybe you dont. Your level of expertise seems to be secondary to your attempt to ridicule mine.

My driving skills are at a level where everyone I know wants me to drive when they travel with me. Porgram that into your autonomous vehicle and add your own experience.

Then try to get insurance, after posting your bond.
