In modern society we already have a mechanism for preventing machines from doing immoral things: hold someone accountable for its actions. It can be the owner or the manufacturer, or some mix of both, just someone should be responsible. This sets up the incentives for either better management by the owner, or for the manufacturer to design the car to avoid illegal harm. Why have a parallel system of morals aside from the law when we can just apply the law?
