I can see that analogy. On the other hand, if I walk by your car and see that the parking meter has expired, I don’t get on the phone to the police. If I walk by and see you ramming pedestrians, I do.
And actually a lot of cars now make 911 calls if you hit something. I’m ambivalent about that as a car owner, but I would have a lot less ambivalence if the car were smart enough to tell the difference between, say, me ramming pedestrians, and it being a situation that affected only me and that I could deal with on my own.
