That's easy to say, but do you want to be one of the people who gets killed? I don't.
Yeah, it's that easy to say and yeah, I don't want to be one of the people killed, driverless or not. Cars are fucking deadly. 20 pedestrians die every day to cars. If we can get that number down but have them die to FSD vehicles, that's better. I don't care who or what is driving.
I'd rather not have cars everywhere, but if we do I want them to be as safe as possible (for everyone, not just the driver). If that includes FSD we should do it, even if the number of pedestrian deaths doesn't hit zero (it never will) because the alternative is well above zero.
If I'm get killed by a driver on their phone, I want them to go to prison.
If I'm killed by a Waymo or whatever, who goes to jail then?
If we really must have self driving cars, limit their speed to 20mph in built up areas.
If you're dead, why the fuck do you care who goes to jail? Shouldn't we care more about people dying than revenge after?
Don't reason deterrentists, they cause wars and send millions to prison
