A federal investigation into a fatal crash involving an Uber self-driving car concluded that the probable cause was a safety driver distracted by their phone
Washington, DC A federal investigation into a fatal crash involving an Uber self-driving car concluded the probable cause was a safety driver distracted by their phone. The National Transportation Safety Board investigation also determined that an inadequate safety culture at Uber contributed to the March 2018 crash in Tempe, Arizona.
Investigators described it as an avoidable crash during a board meeting in Washington, DC, Tuesday. The investigators found that an alert vehicle operator would have had two to four seconds to detect and avoid pedestrian Elaine Herzberg, who was crossing a street when struck by Uber's self-driving vehicle.
