Driverless Car Policy Needs Clarification: Toyota Executive
The auto industry wants the next administration to pick up where the Obama administration left off and clarify recently released federal guidance on the deployment of self-driving cars, a Toyota Motor Corp. official told Bloomberg BNA.
The company has found a lot of “ambiguity and vagueness” as it goes through the industry guidelines that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration put out last month for automated vehicle technology, particularly in areas like cybersecurity, Hilary M. Cain, Toyota’s director of technology and innovation policy, said during an Oct. 11 event hosted by R Street Institute in Washington.
