Apple was never going to release a product that would inevitably kill lots of people. Absolute non-starter.

- DinaCoder99 3y agoWas the car supposed to have self-driving or something?
- AJ007 3y agoApple has the data on how many iPhones are being used by drivers, while moving, and how many are involved in accidents. It's almost like if you had a handgun that had a camera on it that knew children where on the other end of the barrel, and had the ability to not fire when the shooter pulled the trigger. Apple knowingly put a tremendous amount of senors on a device that distracts drivers. The class action lawyers haven't figured this one out yet, but give it time.
- lotsofpulp 3y agoHow would Apple know if the iPhone is being used by a driver, as opposed to a passenger?
- perryizgr8 3y agoIsn't this obvious? Use the cameras on the front and back of the device. It's a trivial problem with Apple's sophisticated image description models.
- lotsofpulp 3y agoYou mean have the cameras constantly be activated if the device is moving greater than x speed? Wouldn’t that drain the batteries a ton? And what characteristics does the phone look for? It could just be sitting on someone’s lap or held in a way that cannot see the outside or the steering wheel.

Plenty of companies and products kill loads of people or at least are involved in slave labor and environmental damage and their stocks are through the roof and their products fly off the shelves. See Saudi Aramco, Chevron, BP, H&K, BAE, and Nestle. Do you think Apple and consumers are gonna grow a conscience right now?
