I hate how little you can do about this. You can't ban vehicles.

Literally anyone of the millions and millions of people behind a wheel can do this if they wanted, disgusts me that this is a problem.

AI controlled vehicles, I guess? That's probably where we're headed at some point anyway.

Edit: though that could lead to even worse things, too.

But there would be manual override of course. Otherwise if there is a malfunction or a hack of sorts you are screwed. The car did it would not even be a good defense if you survive but others don't. And the manual override needs to be implemented in such a fashion that you can just do it by taking the wheel and punching the brakes or accelerator a little and somehow protected from hacks.
