Can't wait for this ethics in technology course

anyone choosing to instantly teleport into the center of a road directly in front of a moving vehicle kinda deserves to get hit, so yeah I guess it should just drift and hit both because old people and babies capable of teleportation should be more responsible with their superpowers and as a society we can't risk having that kind of power being in such incompetent hands.

other than that it seems pretty preventable and accounted for already

also if a system with perfect attentiveness, superhuman vision, and practically instant reaction times can't avoid hitting a pedestrian in a crosswalk I'm assuming it also didn't have enough time or control over the vehicle to actually pick who to hit anyway so there's really no point to this "thought exercise" at all.

tl;dr: fuck it, kill grandma.
