From the article and footage I would be leaning towards a vehicle sensor or system failure. I would be interested in finding out the final analysis but if they do not fault the vehicle I would have no confidence in current generation of self driving vehicles.

In this case the operator behind the wheel looked half asleep and could not intervene or even if alert may still not have been able to avoid impact. The data I would be interested in is how many interventions by alert drivers have occurred to avoid collisions.
