A vehicle only does what the *driver* tells it to. A vehicle cannot (yet) be in the right or wrong. It’s the driver.
Only 1 person here created the danger. I guess you’ll never see that through your #CarBrain mindset.

The poor car’s owner must be distraught, hearing that their car has gone & done something so dangerous & reckless, & in a car park too. Whilst they were shopping. 😳
These self-driving cars are a bloomin’ menace. 😠

The Audi likely wasn’t doing that all by itself, the *driver* was doing the speeding & tailgating 😠

No one has said anything about the car. The *driver* on the other hand was clearly driving far too close & didn’t give themself sufficient space to stop safely if something like this happened.

Hey @WRPSToday, it’s “A youth and their parent were hurt and sent to hospital when they were struck by a [driver] while out cycling in south Cambridge.” Get it right, dipshits. #DriverNotCar

Note how different media treat the same story. The one on the left, from @sganley at @WCVB, is passive-language garbage. The one on the right, from @StreetsblogMASS, provides essential context. That’s how you do it. #media #DriverNotCar

Great to see community notes fixing this incessant bullshit from media outlets everywhere. Passive voice and covering up for drivers’ human agency in these killings is positively endemic. #CrashNotAccident #DriverNotCar

Media: “…biking accident.”
What actually happened: a driver made the decision to get behind the wheel while impaired and drunkenly rammed his car into two men riding bicycles, killing them.
Fix this, you fucking ghouls.

Not an “accident”. A result. The result of bad decision-making by the driver. Accountability now. #DriverNotCar #CrashNotAccident
