Analysis Of Tort Liability For Driverless Cars

As an outstanding achievement in the field of artificial intelligence,autonomous vehicles have the characteristics of behavioral autonomy,human-computer interaction,and obedience.These characteristics have completely broken the separation of tool and value rationality of traditional technology products,enabling autonomous vehicles to integrate value judgments and tool attributes.Therefore it can exert value in a wider range of applications.However,the value judgments has brought about the diversification of civil subjects and the complicated legal issues of liability.This article introduces autonomous vehicles infringement cases in China and the United States,and analyzes the disputes of cases,including whether the loss caused by the accident should be borne by drivers or the car manufacturer,and which liability should be applied to each liability.The legal challenges brought about by autonomous vehicles are drawn from the case.Autonomous vehicles complicate the cause of accidents due to their intelligence and autonomy.This is reflected in the ambiguity of the responsible party and the controversial characteristics of the determination of responsibility.Start with the liability of the car system and the method of responsibility.It should be linked to the relevant responsible body,including the users and owners of the autonomous car,producers,sellers,system suppliers and internet technology service providers.Focuing on analyzing the applicability of autonomous car applicable of product liability and motor vehicle traffic accident liability,demonstrating the feasibility of autonomous cars applying product liability,and realizing the concept of differentiated management of autonomous cars in terms of traffic accident liability;In addition,learning from the advanced legal achievements outside the territory,it takes the United States,the United Kingdom,and Germany as examples to explore the current legal status and legislative status of unmanned vehicles outside the territory.Therefore it can provide experience for promoting the legal construction of autonomous car in China.Finally,in order to solve the problems of autonomous car,it is recommended that the "Regulations on the Management of Autonomous Vehicles" be promulgated in a timely manner.Judicial interpretation of accident liability which based on the urgency of the actual situation and the interpretability of the law.It refines the infringers of autonomous vehicle infringement,the method of liability,and the risk apportionment in oder to solving the of the puzzle in liability of autonomous vehicles.
