The crash happened because the human failed to intervene and because the computer, which clearly detected the need for breaking seconds before, wasn’t allowed to intervene (by humans). Let that sink in for a second.https://twitter.com/wsj/status/999653002863693824 …
When things go wrong, and assisted driving technology is involved, we always forget about what would have happened if only the human driver would have been there. Typically the the answer is exactly the same or worse. Certain tech inspires less attention, and that is an issue...

...but this was a driver specifically hired to test systems and therefore should had expectations of errors/situations happening at any given time.

She was just out of jail and did not have any special qualification/skill. My impression is that this kind of people are the perfect scapegoats for those corps. And the fact that the braking system was disabled can be assessed independently?

IDK. Maybe an human driver would had slowed down when moving between an illuminated area and a very dark one. Lots of accidents are due to reckless drivers, but I expect self-driving cars to be much more careful than those humans :)
