The victim, named by authorities as Elaine Herzberg, was crossing the street at night time when she was hit by a self-driving Uber 4x4 in the South West city of Tempe, Arizona. The 49-year-old was taken to a local hospital where she died of her injuries.
The incident is the first known death involving a fully autonomous vehicle. (Telegraph)
