• Description:
  Connected and autonomous vehicles (C/AV) present the opportunity for momentous and positive changes to most aspects of modern life. When described, the impact to mobility is imagined as safer and more efficient. This comes from the chance to build a self-driving and connected network of vehicles, infrastructure, and supporting data exchanges.... As a leader in seeking to promote the safe and transformational deployment of C/AV technologies, TxDOT developed and issued for research proposals one of the first C/AV research projects focused on liability issues from the state DOT perspective. The research team, consisting of the Texas A&M Transportation Institute (TTI) and Stantec, embarked on a 24-month project consisting of the following research tasks to identify potential tort liability for TxDOT from the deployment of C/AV technologies.
