No impunity for Herbie
No impunity for driverless cars. They may have to testify in court, if required to do so.
______________
Driverless cars are becoming more common in some California cities, but when the autonomous vehicles violate traffic laws, police haven't been able to ticket them - until now.
The state's Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) has announced new regulations on autonomous vehicles (AVs), including a process for police to issue a "notice of AV noncompliance" directly to the car's manufacturer.
The new rules, which will go into effect 1 July, are part of a larger 2024 law that imposed deeper regulation on the technology.
There have been a number of reports of the cars breaking traffic laws, including during a San Francisco blackout last year.
