"I didn't have a choice but to fire a gun in the middle of a crowd of people. It was just a wake up call!. You always have a choice. One of those choices is to do the demo, but with the proper safety authorities helping. One of those choices is to perform the demo in a place where it is safe to pull your car over. One of those choices is to do the demo somewhere where the speeds are a little lower.
All of those things you listed are actual emergency situations that are hard to control. This is one thing where they were in full control of, and still decided to do it anyway. They had a choice, and they chose to endanger the public.
- yellowapple 11y agoThere's a big difference between firing a gun and a car gradually slowing down. Yes, the researchers could have made better choices. They could have made worse choices, too. The "danger" here is significantly exaggerated given the descriptions of the scenario in the article (gradual slowdowns, contrary to popular belief, aren't that hard to react to in a timely manner), and it certainly does not compare to firing a gun.
