The House of Lords Science and Technology Committee will continue its inquiry investigating driverless vehicles on Tuesday 8 November by hearing evidence from European Officials and industry experts including Smart Highways magazine regulars John McCarthy of Atkins and TRL’s Nick Reed.
This session provides an opportunity for the Committee to hear from representatives from three driverless car trials in Greenwich, Bristol and Milton Keynes. The Committee will be able to explore the progress being made by the trials and the issues they have highlighted relating to the deployment and regulation of driverless cars as well as social and behavioural issues.
The Committee will also examine the extent to which the UK will have to align itself with future international regulation for self-driving vehicles in areas such as cyber-security and data handling and will assess what progress has been made in European and global regulation of autonomous vehicles.
