Uber 'not criminally liable' for self-driving death

​Prosecutors from Yavapai County Attorney's Office in Prescott, Arizona have ruled that Uber is not criminally liable for the death of Elaine Herzberg, a 49-year old woman who was struck by one of Uber's self-driving cars. The car's back-up driver could still face criminal charges.
