Abstract:

This report, the fourth in the series, documents continuing work identifying unnecessary/unintended regulatory barriers to self-certification and compliance verification of innovative vehicle designs with automated driving systems that lack manually operated driving controls (steering wheel, brake pedal, etc.). It gives technical translation options of 23 FMVSS, including definitions included in 49 CFR Part 571 Subpart A, crash avoidance standards, focusing on braking and electronic stability control, and crashworthiness standards focusing on rear impact, platform lift systems, and consideration for unconventional seating. It also describes work performed developing related compliance test procedures for ADS-equipped vehicles, focusing on braking and ESC test methods for FMVSS Nos. 135 and 126; and a study of the heavy braking and ESC requirements associated with FMVSS Nos. 105, 121, and 136.
