Also you can't get it if you get someone killed, but you get my point

Also it's too late because they already reproduced themselves (presumably if they buy a stroller). So the natural selection didn't work actually.

It doesn't navigate by itself when you've got a baby in it. But of course, you're incapable of reading more than a title

That makes it pretty useless

If the title is inaccurate, blame the person who wrote it. It's meant to convey all relevant data. Though your rudeness is not required.

Says the person who said the buyer should receive a Darwin award.

And let's say it could drive with the baby in it, why not say: anyone who buys a self-driving car should also receive a Darwin award

But, rather than checking if it was possible, you jumped straight to conclusions like it was an Olympic sport.
