Following a fatal accident in Tempe, Arizona, Uber has suspended all self-driving tests on public roads across North America. 

Sometime Sunday night or very early Monday morning, an Uber self-driving car in autonomous mode struck a pedestrian walking outside of a crosswalk. A human operator was behind the wheel but not in control during the incident.
