Uber self-driving car that struck and killed pedestrian couldn't detect jaywalkers, NTSB says

Raw video: Cameras mounted inside the car catches the fatal moment. Authorites are investigating the cause of the crash. The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) says that an Uber self-driving car that struck and killed a pedestrian in Arizona in 2018 was unable to detect jaywalkers. Elaine Herzberg died in March 2018 when an Uber vehicle struck her as she walked across a darkened street in Tempe. The board said the Uber autonomous driving system spotted Herzberg before hitting her but a system used to automatically apply brakes in potentially dangerous situations had been automatically disabled.
