My understanding is that the software in the car detected Herzberg and could have stopped the car in time to avoid the collision but that that subroutine had been disabled due to to many false positives. The "safety driver" (in quotes because she turned out to be both unsafe and not actually driving at the time) is also at fault.
Certainly, Elaine Herzberg wouldn't have been killed by that car if it wasn't there, eh?

Don't test killer robots on the public.
