- Title
STATES' APPROACHES TO AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE TECHNOLOGY IN LIGHT OF FEDERAL LAW.
- Authors
KASAP, ATILLA
- Abstract
Autonomous vehicle (AV) technology offers specific promises that no other technology has yet offered - the prospect of radically reducing road fatalities, a significant reduction in the number and severity of incidents, along with environmental and societal benefits. This Article takes an interdisciplinary approach to understand and create a basis for legal discussion for further development and offers tools for policymakers seeking concrete principles on which to define potential laws and regulations. In doing so, this Article comprehensively surveys the emerging federal and state statutory and legislative developments, reviews existing laws regarding AVs, and answers the question of whether these regulations are adequate or should be revised in light of the particular features of AV technology. This Article finds that there is still a significant aspect of AVs that have yet to be addressed in state regulations and that inconsistencies between them are significant. This Article makes the case for federal regulatory and legislative action that would ensure safe and reliable testing and operation of AVs and harmonization among states in the future.
