- On March 18, 2018, a self-driving Uber ran over a pedestrian in Arizona. This incident is a reminder that autonomous
vehicular technology has a long long way to go before it becomes widely accessible to the public.
- Accidents happen, it's only natural, people said. But it's important to note that human driving causes only 1 fatal incident
every 100 million miles. Uber’s self-driving cars had only driven a few million miles before the fatal accident. Thus
proving that Uber’s driving record is much worse than a human’s.
- The same year, a Tesla driver was killed while using autopilot mode due to a collision with a concrete wall.
- These weren’t the only accident involving self-driving cars and pedestrians and they won’t be the last.

- So, let’s look up and keep hoping for cars that are safer, cheaper and simply better for us and the environment.
