The interesting questions that driverless cars raise are legion. For
example imagine, in order to take evasive action in an emergency, a
driverless car has to choose between plowing into a lampost, an
oncoming car, a store front, a little old lady crossing the street,
two minority group kids standing by the curb, one non-minority group
kid standing by the curb, etc etc etc. Which does it go for? Or does
it just stop dead in its tracks and get crushed by the out-of-control
dump track immediately behind it?
Driverless cars are Stupid Technology.
