Common question I hear at work a lot. These self driving cars, picture the situation. It's driving 100mph+ going straight towards a pack of children(could be anyone but this sounds a bit more terrifying). The car can only turn into a brick wall, killing the driver and passengers, OR straight into the children.

What do you program it to do in these situations???

It's an interesting question and compelling scenario. I'd probably question why a car was ever going 100mph near anywhere where there might be people but the point still stands. I'd say in that exact scenario save the children.

I would make the car decelerate as early as possible and stop before hitting childrens. For this, may be cars front sensors range needs to be increased, but should be possible...

I believe self-driving cars will save hundreds of thousands of lives in the future. Yes Google hit a bus at 2mph but I can live with that at this point. The car/program should understand its whereabouts at all times relative to stationary and moving objects and decelerate. If there was a reason to exceed the speed limit such as to avoid a collision - the program should analyze those factors and act accordingly. Going 100mph as people do now should not be possible if it increases risk. Thoughts?

I'd say try to save the most people possible...in this case would the car be able to tell they're children and would it make a difference vs adults?

Deskwarrior has a good point. Even if the sensors in the car can detect they are small, they still may just be a group of midgets.

I can also tell newcomers to the automobile craft that now you can easily learn about many different component cars. If you know the details about them, then it will be much calmer and easier to drive. I already know it by myself. But it is certainly not easy to find such details, and who knows where to read such materials. It's a good thing that I was lucky and I was able to find just great information about the inlet manifold https://avtotachki.com/en/... . You can also look here and learn a lot about the inlet manifold. I don't think there will be any problems or difficulties here. I hope that I have really managed to help a lot with this difficult but necessary thing. Good luck!
