>>Did they really weigh the life of the rabbit against death and injury of seven people?
I would say yes. Firstly I would see what the driver actually did. Did the driver have the seven people in plain sight when he/she made that decision? But for sure the driver did make a moral decision to save the Rabbit's life. It would have even been the case where the person thought he could save the rabbit's life without harming the humans. So you have to make decisions which are purely not mathematical here.
>>could easily use the heuristic that hitting the small thing is safer than hitting the big thing.
How would this hold against hitting some one below average height versus hitting some one tall. Or running over a baby Vs an aged person.
Right there are all kinds of moral dilemma.
