Recommendation 9
9
Integrate self-driving vehicle needs into future infrastructure strategy, addressing current siloed preparations.
Recommendation
Self-driving vehicles will need well-maintained roads and signage, nationwide connectivity, and up-to-date digital information about the road network. While some steps have been taken towards this by the Government and public bodies, these preparations are too siloed and divorced from broader planning. If the Government is serious about self-driving vehicles, it should ensure meeting their needs is an integral part of future infrastructure strategy. (Paragraph 89) What legal changes are needed?
