      Yeah, but the general public are morons who tend to blame the wrong thing.

        The general public is irrelevant here. If it weren’t for the self driving car the hit and run wouldn’t even have made the news. If it all this makes it worse for the driver.

        And I don’t think there is a wrong party to blame. Both are equally fucked up.

          That is exactly the kind of thing I am talking about.

        What have the general public got to do with it? This is a criminal offence, not a viral bit of gossip.

      Perhaps he’s implying that due to the second car it may obfuscate if the first driver’s actions would have been lethal or just left the person injured. He’d probably rather be tried for a hit and run resulting in injury than a hit and run resulting in a death.
