OK, its just a deer, but the future is clear. These things are going to start kill people left and right.

How many kids is Elon going to kill before we shut him down? Whats the number of children we're going to allow Elon to murder every year?

don't most cars have proximity and collision detectors now?

To err is human; To really foul things up you need a computer.

It doesn't have to not kill people to be an improvement, it just has to kill less people than people do

True in a purely logical sense, but assigning liability is a huge issue for self-driving vehicles.

Is there a longer video anywhere? Looking closely I have to wonder where the hell did that deer come from? There's a car up ahead of the Tesla in the same lane, I presume quickly moved back in once it passed the deer? The deer didn't spook or anything from that car?

This would have been hard for a human driver to avoid hitting, but I know the issue is the right equipment would have been better than human vision, which should be the goal. And it didn't detect the impact either since it didn't stop.

But I just think it's peculiar that that deer just literally popped there without any sign of motion.

Honestly, I’m surprised the car was still in one piece. I’ve seen semi-trucks disintegrate after hitting a dear.

self driving cars should absolutely be banned from public roads.

People are well known for never ever running over anything or anyone.
