Analysis On The Liability Of Traffic Accidents In Auto-driving Motor Vehicles

With the rapid development of artificial intelligence technology,the era of self-driving motor vehicles is coming.While the self-driving motor vehicle brings great value to the society,it will inevitably bring challenges to the traditional legal system.Automated driving vehicles have a high degree of anthropomorphism and autonomy.Unlike traditional robots,they cannot be regarded as simple tools for human use.The responsibility of autopilot motor vehicle traffic accidents cannot be compared with traditional machines.The traditional liability system has certain lags and limitations in the subject of responsibility,the principle of imputation,the facts and the causality.It cannot be fully applied and it is urgent to formulate new legal rules.And the development of autonomous driving technology is gradual,and the roles and responsibilities of drivers under different skill levels are obviously different.Therefore,it is necessary to combine the characteristics of autonomous driving technology to distinguish its responsible subject,obligation distribution,responsibility commitment,exemption reasons,etc.according to different levels of technology.Many developed countries attach great importance to the great potential of the autonomous motor vehicle industry in the future.Many legislative and ethical attempts and explorations have been carried out in this field according to the characteristics of autonomous driving technology.On the basis of learning from foreign advanced experience and summarizing its shortcomings,this paper tries to explore the responsibility of traffic accidents in the field of autonomous driving vehicles from the perspective of distinguishing different levels of autonomous driving technology,including the determination of responsible subjects,the distribution of obligations,Responsibility,excuses,etc.In addition,in order to cope with the innovation brought about by new technologies,maintain the balance of interests of all parties,and promote the sound development of the industry,we should also develop a series of supporting measures for autonomous driving,introduce a dual-level liability insurance framework,and drive automatically.Motor vehicle safety technical standards,registration and recall systems,motor vehicle data recording devices,etc.are regulated and supervised,and the development of the autonomous motor vehicle industry is escorted at the public management level.
