Those things don't really help that (a) the human driver wasn't paying sufficient attention (the limitations of human minds are of course one of the very reasons in favour of developing self-driving cars, but in this case the human was streaming a TV show instead of doing the job); nor (b) that the AI saw the victim (the sensor suite supposedly included LIDAR and radar which could spot the victim even if the lightning conditions had been worse) but kept reclassifying them as different objects and didn't have object persistence between reclassification and therefore didn't do good path prediction until too late.

Also the automated emergency braking system was disabled at the time.
