> On May 21 in San Francisco, a small dog ran in front of one of our vehicles with an autonomous specialist present in the driver’s seat, and, unfortunately, contact was made.
"Contact was made" is an interesting way of wording it.

It's that same curious passive voice used to report on cops shooting people. The last time I made contact with a dog, the dog was uninjured and happy.
