Goddamn Autoplay/autorun.inf, a script kiddies wet dream for spreading crapware.

The day M$ enabled flash drives to run a program as soon as a flash drive is plugged in, with zero user intervention was just BEGGING to be abused. And it has for decades now.

Idiots. I've been disabling it from day one on my builds and its saved me (and my clients) a LOT of headaches.

Comment Patient probably was going to die regardless (Score 4, Informative) 75

While not defending Cruise, the report states that the patient had a GCS score of 3 (the lowest you can get), agonal respirations, no peripheral pulse, and massive bleeding from the leg (Police had to tourniquet it),

The GCS score indicates this person likely had massive brain injuries, and the other information is indicative of massive hemorrhage and hypotensive shock.

This patient had virtually no chance of survival given the injuries. That said, I'm sure its only a matter of time before one of these automated vehicles DOES directly get someone killed.
