It is astonishing how many conflicting bits of information are slowly trickling out about this person's death.
- phkahler 9y agoEspecially when there is video of it. Please tell me there is dashcam footage, since that's the first thing that should be available as evidence with a self-driving car.
- netsharc 9y agoWell, considering the whole thing is in a test phase, they must have a recording of all the sensor data, including what the cameras saw.
- oh_sigh 9y agoI wonder if they have a camera pointed at the safety driver? I'm curious if he is telling the truth, or was just distracted and could have theoretically braked for the woman.
- netsharc 9y agoInterestingly, pointing the finger at the driver is a get-out-of-"jail" card for Uber, but will ruin his life. They can claim he's an integral safety for the test of the whole self-driving system, and he failed to do his job. Which would make other safety drivers either think "I have to pay 100 %attention" (which they should, anyway), or "I'm outta here!"
- skybrian 9y agoIt seems pretty common after a newsworthy crash for there to be a lot of uninformed speculation. Investigations take time. Just like with airplane crashes, it's probably best to ignore everything about this incident until we see the results of the investigation.
