Warning: The female full frontalvideo below contains footage which some readers may find disturbing.

Police released a video Wednesday of the self-driving Uber vehicle that struck and killed a woman Sunday night in Tempe, Arizona.

The video, below, shows Uber's self-driving vehicle's exterior view right before the crash. A quick glimpse of the woman killed, 49-year-old Elaine Herzberg, walking her bike can be seen. The moment she was hit is not shown because of what Tempe police called "the graphic nature of the impact."

The video then shows an inside view of the operator -- identified as 44-year-old Rafael Vasquez -- sitting behind the driver's seat, looking around and down, and then abruptly opening his mouth and eyes wide in what looks like surprise and shock as the car hits the woman.

Police said the Volvo XC90 was in autonomous mode while traveling close to 40 mph in a 35 mph zone. The woman, who is believed to have been homeless, was apparently walking outside the crosswalk mid-block when she was struck.

Uber is cooperating with the police and National Transportation Safety Board investigations. Its self-driving car programs in Pittsburgh, San Francisco, Toronto, and the Phoenix area remain suspended. After the crash, a company spokesperson said, “Our hearts go out to the victim’s family. We are fully cooperating with authorities in their investigation of this incident.”

Police said they plan to submit the case to the Maricopa County Attorney's Office. Mashable has reached out to Uber for comment on the video, and we’ll update if and when we hear back.
