The onus is on driver to see what the path ahead is clear. Uber clearly violated the 3 sec. rule [i.e. reaction time plus braking time with the braking time dominating the equation]. Uber was driving too fast for the conditions. If you have only 30m clear view, you can't drive faster than 10m/s. Driving faster, like Uber did here, is basically driving blind, reckless and negligent. The woman was in the headlights for only 1 second - thus Uber was driving 3 times faster than the maximum safe speed in those conditions ( specifically the power and angle of their low beam headlights)
>the pedestrian showed up in the field of view right before the collision
It takes AZ police and $70B corp together to conclude that the woman appeared too fast. Guess what? If people and objects appear too fast in the field of view then you're driving too fast.
