Uber resumes self-driving car tests in Pittsburgh nine months after fatal crash

Uber's self-driving cars are getting back on the road today, nine months after one of its autonomous vehicles struck and killed a pedestrian in Arizona. The firm said it's resuming limited testing on public roads in Pittsburgh. The return of testing comes days after the state of Pennsylvania granted Uber permission to resume testing. A fatal accident involving a pedestrian and one of Uber's self-driving vehicles could have been prevented, a new report claims. An employee warned the ride-sharing giant that there were issues with Uber's autonomous-driving technology just days before Elaine Herzberg, a 49-year-old Arizona woman, was struck and killed.
