The chief of the Tempe Police has told the San Francisco Chronicle that Uber is likely not responsible for the Sunday evening crash that killed 49-year-old pedestrian Elaine Herzberg.
“I suspect preliminarily it appears that the Uber would likely not be at fault in this accident,” said chief Sylvia Moir.
Herzberg was “pushing a bicycle laden with plastic shopping bags,” according to the Chronicle‘s Carolyn Said, when she “abruptly walked from a center median into a lane of traffic.”
