I thought it's already established the LIDAR, RADAR and Collision Detection systems on the Volvo were functional and HAD detected an object in the road ahead that it knew it was going to collide with at least 6 seconds before the impact?
From reading the NTSB report, yep. It had tracked and classified the threat, narrowing down the probability of interception in those 6 seconds. The way Uber had it set up, it wouldn't have warned the driver, but the data were logged. Again if the driver knew that, then they should have known to pay attention. I think the onboard camera footage is a bit misleading as it doesn't really show the driver's FOV. It does show the driver's inattention though.
(And being Friday, I wonder how long it'll take to get an augmented reality feature. Pedestrian, 5 points.Cycle, 10. Fire truck, Game Over)
