Is there another walkway/roadway intersection that's approximately perpendicular that I'm not seeing? (I have to assume that we're looking at different areas of the map, because I give you enough credit that you aren't arguing that these two characters are perpendicular right at the end: \| )
I agree with your closing notion that there is a question of contributory fault. What started this sub-branch was my argument that the pedestrian's contribution was not 0.00%. I also don't think that the Uber Volvo's share is 0.00%.
It is sufficiently close to perpendicular that I would call it an unmarked crosswalk. If it is not intended to be a crosswalk, it is not the pedestrian's fault to use it as a crosswalk... it is the traffic engineer's fault for designing an unsafe crosswalk.
The pedestrian's contribution may not be 0%, but it is definitely lower than both the traffic engineer's share and Uber's share.
(From Eric's twitter stream, it seems like the collision may have even been at the pink line, which is even farther from perpendicular than the red line.)
