I assume the poor dashcam footage came out because it fits the narrative they were all trying to push. I don't think there is any reason to believe it was the input to the driving system, but either way, it does not look good for Uber, and if it is apparently deliberately misleading, or, worse, has been tampered with, then that would take it to a new level.
The release of the interior shot might have been an attempt to throw the 'safety' driver under the bus, so to speak, and while her inattentiveness was a very serious matter, it also does not look good for Uber.
- scoggs 9y agoYeah, they did not need to show the footage of her blatantly distracted away from the road. That was my biggest takeaway. I'm not sure who decided what footage got shown publicly but I immediately found that interesting to say the least.
- JKCalhoun 9y agoI thought it looked a bit like they were throwing their human backup driver under the bus as well. Not cool.
- JeremyBanks 9y agoWhy is it not cool? Certainly Uber the company is systemically responsible for this failure, but the driver also had a role in preventing harm, and they were negligent. There's more than enough blame to share.
