OK, its just a deer, but the future is clear. These things are going to start kill people left and right.

    It doesn’t have to not kill people to be an improvement, it just has to kill less people than people do

      That’s a low bar when you consider how stringent airline safety is in comparison, and that kills way less people than driving does. If sensors can save people’s lives, then knowingly not including them for profit is intentionally malicious.

      True in a purely logical sense, but assigning liability is a huge issue for self-driving vehicles.

        As long as there’s manual controls the driver is responsible as they’re supposed to be ready to take over

          That doesn’t sound like a self-driving car to me.

            Because it’s not, it’s a car with assisted driving, like all cars you can drive at the moment and with which, surprise surprise, you are held responsible if there’s an accident while it’s in assisted mode.
