Description
This policy paper sets out recommendations for legislative reform to:
- provide clarity about the situations when an automated driving system (ADS), rather than a human driver, may drive a vehicle;
- ensure there is a legal entity that can be held responsible for the operation of the automated driving system;
- establish any new legal obligations that may be required for users of automated vehicles and;
- outline further work that needs to be done to transform agreed policy into legislation.
