What is wrong in that case?
Saving the own ass, following the ' do not lie ' as required by the categorical imperative?
Or acting ethical, lie and risk your own life?

I dont follow your premise that "dont lie" is a unavoidable conclusion from the imperative.

Then you certainly have a good idea how to explain an exception from a general rule.
Edit: the problem in it is that the rule is not general after the exception.

Really, these are just your own conclusions, find peer reviewed articles that give your own conclusions a little bit foundation.

You are the one to tell me, what lets a general rule still be general if there are exceptions and how to identify exceptions as valid and necessary.
You have stated that an automatic Kant is always right.
So it is up to you.
