Car Minus Driver: Autonomous Vehicles and the Law

 

Within the next decade, autonomous vehicles and vehicles with crash-avoidance technology will transform the transportation world, promising to significantly reduce traffic injuries and fatalities. But well-publicized incidents demonstrate that autonomous cars will still crash. How will that impact tort liability as we know it? In this CLE, technology lawyer Damien Riehl will examine how autonomous vehicles will likely interact with regulations, legislation, and liability.
