[ WP ] Your future self driving car has to choose between saving you or saving some strangers ( from r/futurology )

A man by the name of Bill was in a self driving car that was driving on the highest road in North America ( The Mount Evans Scenic Byway ). As it was a very windy road, it was a challenge for his vehicle to maneuver. But that did n't stop Bill from taking the challenge. 
 
 When he got to a sharp turn near the visitors center, a family was in the middle of the roadway, getting out of their car ( albeit not one that was self driving ). 
 
 This presented a challenge, the self driving car had to make a nearly impossible reverse turn if it was able to save both Bill, and the family. However, that was out of the cars reach. Obeying its creator, to protect the most amount of people, the car drove reverse off the mountain. 
 
 Bill did n't feel the impact, but the family that witnessed the incident did. 
 
 That's why after the events of that fateful day, they became activists to change the `` Cruel technology of robotics'' as they put it. Tirelessly, the parents ( Who went by the names Adeline and Rob ) worked to ensure that the government banned these so called heinous machines. In the process, the public opinion on the issue rose, and was at a solid 60 percent. Fearing that all technology was evil, the majority of Americans took up to the idea of banning technology. The Amish states of America were born. 
 
 The economy suffered, and the country became a shadow of its former self. As food became scarce, and more and more babies were named Jedidiah, some citizens started to rebel. The Robo States of America were born. 
 
 The Electramish Conflict has begun.
