The video has been released. I don't really feel like posting it here, because it feels a bit gratuitous and tragic.

Three things jump out. First, the human sitting in the driver seat that is supposed to be supervising the driving appears to be texting or looking at his phone. Second, the person crossing the street does seem to come into view pretty suddenly. I have no idea if this is a function of the camera's resolution and low light abilities, and that perhaps a human eye would have identified the pedestrian sooner. and Third, the pedestrian appears to be walking at an angle to the road, away from the oncoming car. Which certainly doesn't help with situational awareness.
