I first encountered the famous 'pig snout'-sandwich in the movie "hot shots part deux"... when the colonel eats such a sandwich during topper harley's fighting scene...
I could never forget the scene ....

I don't know how old you actually are. But i am confident that within the next 50 years you may be confronted with a situation where you may only select to use a self drivng car or no car at all.
Self dirving subways are already around. The step to self driving cars may not be so far away.

Thanks for the link... A funny and inspiring approach to the problem.

And additionally i didn't even consider the implementaiton of a car control system capable of solving the question. When cnsidering on how few parameters automation is usually based, it would not even consider any implementation of even a rudimentary "trolley problem solution circuit"...

When getting in a car, everybody should hope not to be involved in an accident with deadly consequences during the trip...
However, accidents happen and people die in accidents, even though it is rather improbable, a residual risk remains that an accident happens and a person will die.
However people use cars accepting this little chance of people dying... In germany in 2014 3.377 died in traffic-accidents...
On the other hand and people take part in lotteries, with a much smaller chance to winm as there are much less people winning 1.000.000 bucks or more, each year.
In my opinion self driving cars should increase the safety of the traffic, but getting in a self driving car will still comprise the residual risk of the car kill you or someone else in a traffic accident.
Finally i would not like the car to decide who is going to die...

"Always two there are -- a master and an apprentice."

The time Vader had his helmet and Sidious had this nice zombie style, Dooku and Maul where already dead... (and the Stormtroopers also rised after this time replacing the clone troopers)...

I presume i definitively know too much about starwars...

Just thanks for this article...
There are so many incorrectly collapsing suspension bridges in movies and movie posters...
The "Bridge Builder" app shows so much more realistic collapses..
