An anonymous reader quotes a report from Ars Technica: Tempe, Arizona, police have released a massive report on the fatal Uber vehicle crash that killed pedestrian Elaine Herzberg in March. The report provides more evidence that driver Rafaela Vasquez was distracted in the seconds before the crash. “This crash would not have occurred if Vasquez would have been monitoring the vehicle and roadway conditions and was not distracted,” the report concludes. Police obtained records from Hulu suggesting that Vasquez was watching “The Voice,” a singing talent competition that airs on NBC, just before the crash. Hulu’s records showed she began watching the program at 9:16pm. Streaming of the show ended at 9:59pm, which “coincides with the approximate time of the collision,” according to the police report.
