Police Say Uber Is Likely Not at Fault for Self-Driving Car Fatality in Arizona
&gt; “The driver said it was like a flash, the person walked out in front of them,” Moir said. “His first alert to the collision was the sound of the collision.”<p>I don&#x27;t know if that is supposed to make anyone feel better about this, if anything it makes it seem worse. I thought one of the big benefits of these systems was they were supposed to be better at exactly these kinds of situations?<p>More like &quot;autonomous cars are better than people at stopping in a flash&quot; rather than &quot;just like people this car didn&#x27;t stop in a flash&quot;.<p>I&#x27;m really not trying to trash these systems, I&#x27;m just surprised at this explanation. Though, I guess based on the other comments now, maybe I shouldn&#x27;t be.
