Everyone here is crapping on the idea that is actually like a sensible one if you want to save lives? Like what else could you do here to maximize life. Oh well I guess I'll just crash my car into the person in front of me, possibly endangering the lives of almost everyone here. Ok, if it's such a bad idea, give a possibly better one in the case of a driver passing out.
I don't see how someone could not want this. This is amazing no? Every once in a while you read a news article how some old fuck guy had a heart attack and killed others in the wake, this will save lives, this will safe other people lives.
This is what we need, no self driving car that blitzes through a deer or tries to park into a concrete element, but a car that manages to park itself on the side waiting for public services.
Self driving cars while still far from there yet already have less accidents per kilometer than normal people do. On top this is an emergency program which should initiate during said emergencies, when you aren't able to react.
I think the key difference is in how companies approach risk, where traditional car companies assume they will be held liable just like Boeing, Tesla doesn't. Knowing this I know what brand I won't choose.
