The Uber safety driver at the wheel during the first known fatal self-driving car crash involving a pedestrian has pleaded guilty to and been sentenced for an endangerment charge.\nThe sentence honors the prosecutors' demands and is stiffer than the six months the defense team requested.\nWhile an autonomous car was involved, Vasquez was supposed to concentrate on the road and take over if necessary.\nExecutives at the company thought it was just a matter of time before a crash occurred, according to supposedly leaked conversations.\nTempe police maintained that Vasquez had been watching a show on Hulu and wasn't paying attention during the crash.
