WARNING: SOME VIEWERS MAY FIND THE FOOTAGE DISTRESSING Video of the first self-driving car crash that killed a pedestrian in the US shows ​how the autonomous Uber failed to slow down before it hit a 49-year-old woman walking her bike across the street. It has raised fresh questions about why the vehicle did not stop when a human entered its path. 'It’s just awful,' Tina Marie Herzberg White, a stepdaughter of the victim, told the Guardian on Wednesday. 'There should be a criminal case.'

This is pretty bad. How could the car's LIDAR not have seen the woman walking across the street?

Also, that driver should be charged with manslaughter for not paying attention.
