Did I say accidents would be made impossible?
I did not say that.. I'm just pointing out that the software must make a decision and that that decision will probably be driven by economic rational considerations that might be in contradiction to own's own personal beliefs.
I said the complete opposite in fact so don't quote your lies.

While I am quite interested in autonomous vehicles I'm not 100% convinced that the movement does not have significant negative impacts, much less dystopic side-effects.
Daimler's automobile vision developed, for example, over the last century from a utopian dream into a suburban nightmare--- an addiction that has created more death in the world than drugs (including its use to finance wars).
I have little doubt that machines can drive cars better than "average" drivers but that still does not make accidents "impossible".
