Research On The Criminal Law Of Unmanned Vehicles Causing Harm

The development of science and technology has changed people’s way of life and promoted social progress.But it also brings a series of new legal problems.The same is true for driverless cars.On the one hand,driverless cars can alleviate driving fatigue and improve travel safety;On the other hand,the road traffic accidents caused by driverless cars have many difficulties in the identification of crimes in criminal law,which are different from the traditional identification of traffic accidents.Therefore,this paper will discuss and study these issues.First of all,starting from the case of driverless car,this paper makes clear the difficult dilemma of crime determination of driverless car,which mainly focuses on three levels: crime subject,subjective sin and causality.Secondly,from the debate on the liability subject qualification of driverless cars in the field of criminal law,on the basis of denying the liability subject qualification of driverless cars,this paper further studies the identification of the liability subject caused by road traffic of driverless cars,and then affirms the liability subject qualification of manufacturers,sellers,users and network intruders behind driverless cars.Finally,based on the previous discussion,this paper specifically analyzes the criminal responsibility determination of intentional psychology and negligent psychology of manufacturers,sellers,users and network intruders,and clarifies the criminal responsibility boundary,so as to reasonably solve the criminal law problems brought about by the crime determination of driverless cars,and realize the balance between technological innovation and legal benefit protection.
