The number of self-driving cars and trucks has been roughly doubling year over year, there are around 5000 right now.

FWIW, I don't think we will ever see safe in all driving conditions, there are plenty of driving conditions where it is fundamentally unsafe for cars and no man nor machine should be driving in them, so in your particular case, you get to wait for self driving cars for the rest of your life.

I think in 5 years people will be complaining about a lack of available open-source and self-hosted self-driving cars, but safe in all weather? Probably not.
