Like many industries, the auto sector is facing significant change as the autonomous vehicle (AV) revolution likely brings a fundamental shift from personal ownership to shared mobility. Consequently, regulators and policymakers will need to consider how levels of automation impact liability, safety, privacy and cybersecurity.The NAIC/CIPR conducted a webinar on Dec. 18, 2019 which addressed the recent technological advancements and federal regulatory actions with driverless technologies. The webinar also examined the current state of autonomos vehicle technology, the ways auto insurance can adapt to this changing risk landscape, and regulations that will need to be revisited and updated alongside autonomous technology development.
