>Cars are the leading cause of dead children
You know, this obviously is exactly why it annoys me to turn off the pedestrian detection. It's not like it protects me, sitting in my car.
- vectorEQ 7y agoit also protects you in the car, if not from physical damage which at speed is likely when hitting a heavy object like a human, from mental trauma of killing a person...
- CalRobert 7y agoThe idea behind what I wrote (which I realize now was unpopular) was that a somewhat overzealous safety system shouldn't be a big deal compared to the possibility of it preventing thousands of dead kids a year, if deployed at scale. Asking such a system to distinguish pretend behavior seems like a big ask.
- ryanlol 7y ago>somewhat overzealous safety system shouldn't be a big deal compared to the possibility of it preventing thousands of dead kids a year I totally agree with you on this, I was just observing an unfortunate byproduct of an otherwise great system. >Asking such a system to distinguish pretend behavior seems like a big ask. I agree, I'm certainly not demanding that anyone do anything to "solve" this issue.
