Woman dies in Arizona after being hit by autonomous Uber - Finance - iTnews
A woman crossing a street has been killed by an autonomous Uber sport utility vehicle in Arizona, leading the ride services company to suspend its autonomous vehicle program across the United States and Canada.
The accident in the Phoenix suburb of Tempe marked the first fatality from a self-driving vehicle, which are being tested around the globe, and could derail efforts to fast-track the introduction of the new technology.
The vehicle was in autonomous mode with an operator behind the wheel at the time of the accident, which occurred overnight Sunday to Monday US time, Tempe police said.
So the human operator in the car wasn't able to avoid her either.
It is just as well that operation of human controlled vehicles is not suspended every time a human driver kills a pedestrian.
I have tech reliability problems with my D1...windows, key fobs, relays.
Not fatal though thankfully.
Only a little tongue in cheek. Too much tech just for techs sake imo.
Yes, I'd argue that an average human backup operator is less safe than a fully autonomous vehicle as their reaction time is much slower than the vehicle's.Quote:

Apparently the woman was walking her bicycle, but did not cross the street at a pedestrian crossing.
always the cyclists fault.
