When Robots Kill – Driverless Car Kills Pedestrian



Believed to be the first death of its kind, a driver-less car recently struck and killed a pedestrian.  As such, this blogger is curious: does the would-be driver then have no personal culpability in the matter when a robot vehicle kills the otherwise innocent?  Moreover, who is the would-be driver, for that matter?  This blogger will likely revisit and revise this blog entry upon obtaning further information regarding this incident.   (See: https://www.nytimes.com/2018/03/19/technology/uber-driverless-fatality.html)
