        I predict there will be a market where you can sell your right not to be injured.

        you'd design the logic to try to save everyone, and probably fail. a design to purposefully kill violates professional ethics

        at any rate, all cars brake better than they swerve, so it's a counterphysical situation

        If a PETA member drives one, will it flip itself to avoid hitting a squirrel?

        won’t be an ethical choice, it will be a business choice. Indemnification in the fine print somewhere. Relationship with buyer

        ethically, it’s still the driver, as they are the party that has chosen to use the tech.

        And what about fire engines, police cars and ambulances? Are the drivers always more important in those cases....

        .....and if so, why? These are moral questions that need to be answered.

        neither are good candidates for the tech- police cars are used as battering rams, fire needs to use sidewalks

        But it will be irresponsible to allow humans to drive cars when this technology arrives........

        Many scenarios already have legal requirements. The AI should obey the law otherwise the manufacturer will be held liable.

        Right now the choice is made by the driver. Keep it that way.
