Auto makers should be financially liable when someone kills a person with their product.
Imagine if Ford had to pay millions for every person killed by a Ford vehicle. How quickly would they retrofit speed limiters?

@getalifemike this makes me think about the really fundamental philosophical idea that a person should not be punished for something they didn't do.
To hold automakers financially liable when someone kills a person with their product is to find them guilty of something they didn't do.
It's always a red flag that it's not such a good idea.
@volkris @getalifemike well, Ford is a company not a person, it's not the same philosophical implications
