“All things equal”: ethical principles governing why autonomous vehicle experts change or retain their opinions in trolley problems—a qualitative study by Stephen R. Milford, Stephen R. Milford, B. Zara Malgir, Bernice S. Elger, Bernice S. Elger, David M. Shaw, David M. Shaw

“…Much research has been conducted on public opinion, but there are no available research findings on the ethical opinions of AV experts.ResultsFollowing reflective thematic analysis, four important findings were deduced: 1) although the expert opinions are broadly utilitarian, they are nuanced in significant ways to focus on the impacts of collision scenarios on the community as a whole. 2) Obeying the rules of the road remains a significantly strong ethical opinion. 3) Responsibility and risk play important roles in how AVs should handle collision situations. 4) Egoistic opinions were present to a limited extent.DiscussionThe findings show that the ethics of AVs still pose a serious challenge; furthermore, while utilitarianism appears to be a driving ethical principle on the surface, along with the need for both AVs and vulnerable road users to obey the rules, questions concerning community impacts and risk vs. responsibility remain strong influences among AV experts.…”
