Uber fires 100 workers in self-driving team post fatal crash

After Uber's self-driving car crash which killed a pedestrian in Arizona in March, the ride-hailing startup has laid off about 100 self-driving vehicle operators. However, the company said "we look forward to returning to public roads in coming months". Uber reportedly plans to replace the jobs with about 55 "mission specialists", positions for which the affected employees can also apply.
