Legislation proposed in the House of Representatives would prohibit states from regulating autonomous vehicles (“AVs”).
According to a Reuters report, under the legislation, proposed by House Republicans, regulations governing AVs would be the domain of the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (“NHTSA”).
The bills would not affect state insurance requirements, so long as they are not used to regulate AVs.
