@MidTowner @Viewfromthe42 This is also a red herring of a question. Right now 3000 people die every year in Canada. If we deployed self driving cars it is likely this would be cut by several orders of magnitude. So whether the pedestrian or the vehicle occupants of a car are killed in a car crash, the remaining 2998 other people are still alive for that year.
Further, it's a question brought up by people who believe that as a human being faced with making the same choice in 0.1 seconds, they themselves make this choice in their mind. Of course, they don't, they react reflexively with no logical thought process.
