"Machine kills human because human violated traffic law" will never fly.

I think it will. The above poster's reference to how 'jaywalking' became a crime after motor vehicles associations conducted heavy PR campaigns to banish pedestrians from what once were shared streets is instructive.
From stories I've heard of how joggers and cyclists are treated sometimes in the US, I wouldn't be so sure.

It would have to be a child being killed.
