Abstract:

In contrast to the modern technical wizardry of Intelligent Vehicle Highway Systems (IVHS), sovereign immunity is a doctrine of common law which literally dates from the days when kings ruled. The sovereign, formerly the king or queen, is now in this country the federal, state and local government. The doctrine generally holds that the sovereign may not be sued or that the sovereign may not be held liable if it is sued, Over the years the doctrine has been modified by statutes and constitutional enactments, as well as by judicial decisions developing the common law and interpreting the statutory and constitutional provisions.
