Uber Self Driving Car has first fatal crash - Sam Wood

An Uber self-driving SUV struck and killed a lady in Tempe, AZ.  This occurred last night and is still being investigated by the police. There was a driver behind the wheel of the Volvo. The driver wasn't doing anything because the car was in autonomous mode.  This means the car would drive on its own and a person would sit behind the wheel as a safeguard. Uber said that they would stop testing these vehicle in the United States and Canada.

I think it is very dumb that Uber is trying to take away people's jobs by having driverless cars. There are just some things that humans have to do instead of machines. It makes me very sad that this happened.

  1. People are so lazy. You don’t need a self driving car, it’s a whole lot safer if you’re doing the job yourself.
