The NHTSA's proposed guidelines for autonomous vehicles aim to eliminate traditional manual controls, allowing faster deployment and commercialization of AVs without steering wheels or pedals.
Zoox has claimed to self-certify the safety of its vehicles, dodging the NHTSA exemption requirement, but the agency is currently investigating this assertion.
The AV STEP program is intended to create a framework for AV companies to share comprehensive safety data with NHTSA while enabling the operation of vehicles without manual controls.
With companies like Tesla and Einride seeking to advance their autonomous vehicle designs, the industry is preparing for a significant shift towards driverless technology.
