If I remember correctly, the cars built in system for emergency braking in this scenario was disabled. So, any other car of that type would have avoided the accident. However, because the AI apparently knew better, it was disabled and someone died.
AI has the problem that not only does it need to observe the environment and determine what to do, but it has to predict the actions of non-rational actor (humans). We aren’t always predictable. AI isn’t always predictable either. The woman who died may have assumed that a car driven by a person would have stopped.
