MEMORANDUM

Posted: May 25, 2017 03:00 PM
From: Representative Jim Marshall
To: All House members
Subject: Autonomous Vehicles
 

Shortly I will introduce a bill that addresses key issues including safety, insurance, accident reporting, registration, and titling, without needlessly restricting testing and deployment of vehicles with fully self-driving safety features.

Specifically, the bill:
  • Authorizes the operation of vehicles with fully self-driving safety technology in vehicles designed for such operation, subject to conditions related to safety and compliance with the Pennsylvania motor vehicle code and Federal motor vehicle safety standards;
  • Requires submission of proof of insurance in compliance with Pennsylvania law as a precondition to the operation of vehicles with fully self-driving safety features;
  • Requires the submission of accident and collision reports, and proper registration and titling for vehicles equipped with fully self-driving safety features in accordance with Pennsylvania law; and
  • Authorizes the operation of on-demand networks of vehicles equipped with fully self-driving safety features, including for ride-sharing purposes.

Please join me in cosponsoring this legislation.




Introduced as HB1637
