Out of 11 accidents, 7 accidents that involved autonomous prototypes were actually rear ended by other vehicles in the city at stop lights.

The other four accidents took place back in September 2014. Two out of the four cars were on self-driving mode while the accidents took place, but police reports have confirmed that the autonomous cars were not at fault.

At the moment, Google autonomous cars have been tested for almost 2.7 million km since the project initially started.
