Self driving car kills its first pedestrian!

[bronsin]

There is no excuse for the vehicle not to have avoided killing the pedestrian. That is what the builders of these vehicles have promised the public. This should’ve been a slamdunk for self driving vehicles. There was no other traffic there were no other pedestrians there was nothing to interfere with the detection system. It’s also damning that there have been no videos released by these people showing their car preventing accidents. In fact it’s logical to suppose if they had such videos they would’ve been made public long ago. If they have them now’s the time to release them !

Frankly the evidence suggests these vehicles will not prevent accidents at all. The legal implications interests me greatly. Who will be found at fault for An accident? The driver who wasn’t driving the vehicle at the time? Hard to understand that one. It’s more likely the people who made the car will be found liable.

Even more likely the manufactures will snow everybody into believing they are not responsible when they have made the claim all along that there will be less or no accidents involving their product.
