The tram operator wouldn't even see that there's a baby inside.
The owner of the vehicle could petition the city's transportation authority and say "your tram killed my baby!" But as soon as the authority sees the details of the situation they should say "You parked a car on the tracks and left your baby in it?!? Dumbass." And stamp "DENIED" in big red letters.
Even if that person contacts a journalist, the headline should read "Dumbass tesla owner parks car on tracks and leaves baby inside. Baby dies."
There's no reason why the tram operator should ever have to find out there was a baby involved.
The tram operator would 100% find out. News exists. To argue otherwise it’s just unreasonable.
Oh really? I hadn't considered that when I mentioned what journalists should do in this case...
How does “what journalists should do” come into play in other situations? Journalists should also exclude shooters names and images from reporting, how does that go?
You’re going to all this trouble to explain how we can deal with killing a baby, without realizing the better option is to just not kill it in the first place.
I don’t think there’s any point continuing this discussion.
