20-4 Coordinating State Policies, Laws and Regulations for Automated Driving Systems Across New England

Project Objectives
The objectives of this project are to:

  • Conduct a literature review of research focused on Automated Driving Systems (ADS);
  • Analyze existing policy, legal, and regulatory issues to overcome anticipated barriers to multi-state ADS operations;
  • Recommend coordinated steps for the NE States to take in consideration of the operations of vehicles on the roadway transitioning from human driven to ADS operated;
  • Develop recommendations towards facilitating testing and deployment of ADS-equipped vehicles operating in multiple states or traveling across state lines; and
  • Support the development of policy, legal, and regulatory approaches that inform national and other regional ADS efforts.
