"glassbytes" : Leading Members of the Automotive Industry Seek Federal Laws for AD Testing

collected by :John Max

More and more states are developing legislation and regulations that are unfortunately creating impediments to the development of autonomous vehicle technology," he states. "One of the most significant challenges that we face today with respect to the testing of autonomous vehicle technology is the patchwork of policy initiatives at the state level. He also adds that NHTSA should request states refrain from making their own AD laws in an amendment to the FAVP. Testifying on this behalf are Mike Abelson, vice president of Global Strategies at GM; Gill Pratt, CEO of Toyota Research Institute; and Anders Karrberg, vice president of government affairs at Volvo Car Group; Nidhi Karla, Senior Information Scientist of RAND; and Joseph Okpaku, vice president of government relations for Lyft. And as the lines gray between driver and vehicle responsibility with AD technology, Pratt emphasizes this is where the federal government should step in, saying, "… we firmly believe that the establishment of vehicle performance standards for autonomous vehicle technology should take place at the national level."
