Automated vehicle liability and AI

Abstract:
The UK Parliament has already pre-emptively legislated for a compensation solution for autonomous vehicle accidents through the Automated and Electric Vehicles Act 2018. The Act is a response to the fact that the ordinary approach to motor vehicle accidents cannot apply in an AV context since there is no human driver. Tort law has previously been subjected to major shifts in response to motor vehicles, and we are again on the cusp of another motor-vehicle-inspired revolution in tort law. However, in legislating for AV accidents in the UK, there was inadequate consideration of alternative approaches.
