Arizona orders Uber to stop testing self-driving cars in the state

Uber's driverless tech pilot program has come to an end in Arizona.

On Monday, the governor of Arizona, Douglas A. Ducey, told Uber in a letter that the state will suspend Uber's license to test autonomous vehicles on Arizona's public roads. 

The decision comes a week after an Uber driverless car hit and killed Elaine Herzberg in Tempe, Arizona. Herzberg was pushing a bike over a roadway, outside of a crosswalk, when she was hit; based on a video of the incident, neither the car nor the safety driver behind the wheel seem to have reacted.
