“What’s that in the road?” one can imagine the self-driving car’s computer calculating to itself.

“It’s a stationary object,“ the computer thinks. “No, wait. It’s a person. It’s a stationary person.”

“Um.  No. That’s a moving pedestrian, and …”

Screech! The self-driving car’s human passenger takes control and slams on the brakes.

And a jogger lives to run another day.
