Notably, non-car manufacturers have also investigated and speculated about self-driving cars, including Google subsidiary Waymo, among others. [10] To help reduce the possibility of safety issues, some companies have begun to open-source parts of their driverless systems.
Regulation of self-driving cars, autonomous vehicles and automated driving system is an increasingly relevant topic in the automotive industry strongly related to the success of the actual technology. Multiple countries have passed local legislation and agreed on standards for the introduction of autonomous cars.
Increases in the use of autonomous car technologies (e.g., advanced driver-assistance systems) are causing incremental shifts in the control of driving. [1] Liability for incidents involving self-driving cars is a developing area of law and policy that will determine who is liable when a car causes physical damage to persons or property. [2]

The Autonomous Vehicle Industry Association on the other hand welcomed the draft order, saying it is "an important step for the future of roadway safety and supply chain resiliency in California."
Tesla and Waymo are locked in a battle for market dominance in the driverless tech sector. Waymo has an early advantage with its functional software but problems scaling its autonomous fleet.
A self-driving car, also known as a autonomous car (AC), driverless car, robotaxi, robotic car or robo-car, [1] [2] [3] is a car that is capable of operating with reduced or no human input. [ 4 ] [ 5 ] Self-driving cars are responsible for all driving activities, such as perceiving the environment, monitoring important systems, and controlling ...
The rising trend of autonomous things is largely driven by the move towards the autonomous car, that both addresses the main existing safety issues and creates new issues. The autonomous car is expected to be safer than existing vehicles, by eliminating the single most dangerous element - the driver.
