Nothing quite says “high-performance muscle car” like a popup ad for a Mopar Extended Warranty covering your whole center console. That’s right, Dodge Charger owners are now experiencing an exciting new feature: pop-up ads that appear every time the vehicle stops at a light. This absolute garbage feature was spotted in the wild, take a look here.
We need to tally up all the accidents and pedestrian hit-and-runs that occur involving cars with this “feature.” It would likely be enough of an increase you could reasonably make a class action lawsuit. I have no sympathy whatsoever for a car manufacturer that can’t get it through their heads that distracted driving is a major cause of accidents, and could easily happen by their own features.
Look up “depraved-heart murder.”
It’s when someone knowingly does something that’s so obviously likely to cause death or injury that that indifference to life can essentially be treated as intent, and if someone does as a result it isn’t manslaughter or wrongful death, but murder.
Classic examples would be arson or knowingly selling tainted medicine.
That’s the grim truth, isn’t it
