Man eats a piece of cake, gets a heart attack and dies instantly. Abnormalities happen with greater complexity. In his case it was a lack of physical maintenance (faulty interospection), a peculiar human trait.
Even cats groom themselves regularly, birds preen their feathers, fish use "cleaning stations" occupied by smaller fish which normally would be prey (symbiosis).
Only humans are able to consciously "justify" (greed) eating that last piece of cake which kills him.
Obviously the "test" driver did not test the operation of the brakes. Every pilot inspects his plane for functionality, before taking off.
indeed.
assuming the video has not been doctored, it does show some odd light shadow lines accross the road.
i would guess the computers camera in theory should be vastly more complex and have far longer sight than is visible on the video.
what is odd is several things.
the lines of shaddow accross the road where the pedestrian is walking which should not be in shadow given the above street lighting.
the lines of shadow are inconsistant with simple physics of light.
the pedestrian is wearing a black jacket at night cycling with no helmet(maybe just pushing the bicycle?)
no high vis appears to show in the video worn by the pedestrian.
really odd is she appears to be looking in the opposite direction of the traffic as she crosses the road. (maybe hypoglycemia or some other type of situation resulting in her being unable to judge the speed and distance of the vehicle headlights)
the angle at which she is pushing the bike clearly shows her hunched over away from the traffic pushing the bike as if it is heavy.
i do hope the transport depatment has done a proper survey of that piece of road
at night to see if there is lighting anomalies that render parts of the road impervious to basic vehicle headlighting.
the fact that the pedestrian appears to "appear out of thin air" half way accross the road when her direction of travel suggests she should have been coming out of the lighted area seen by the street light.
was the test driver a qualified test driver ?
why did the city sign off the license(and were they following the law?) for them to drive without a (licensed?)qualified test driver on open public roads ?
