But to return back to something relevant; Yes. Controlling machinery does, in a way, imply controlling it. Very astute. This is why it's fine to play in traffic without supervision, everyone's in control.
On a less sarcastic note, I hope y'all aren't procreating. Or babysitting. Or even have a pet goldfish.
Hey so if I'm holding a drill on a build site, and a kid is there for whatever reason, and I walk up to them and drill through their leg at low speed what am I?
Are you for real that analogy?
You're effectively saying the driver knew the child was there and intentionally drove over them.
A weird person actively seeking out children to harm them.
Do you have a point here or was that it? Do we need to call the police?
why is it different if I'm in a car on a road?
It's not.
