Sociotechnical analysis of the Uber collision with a pedestrian: Actor Maps and AcciMaps

The aim of this paper is explore, the Actor Map and AcciMap methods as applied to the Uber collision with a pedestrian. This approach moves the foci of study away from the immediate events surrounding the driver, to show decisions taken in the broader system created the circumstances necessary for the accident to occur.
