Summary

The bill creates a new Florida law that shields manufacturers and developers of advanced driving systems from most lawsuits, unless a plaintiff can clearly prove a manufacturing defect, safety standard violation, operation outside the system’s design limits, or intentional fraud. It also restricts punitive damages to cases involving fraud and permits other types of claims unrelated to the system’s design. The measure aims to encourage innovation while still holding companies accountable for serious wrongdoing.
