Clarifies that owners of self-driving motor vehicles must comply with existing insurance requirements.
Introduced First Reading Assembly Referred to AFI
Summary
The bill updates state law to treat self‑driving private passenger vehicles as automobiles for insurance purposes. It requires anyone who owns or registers a self‑driving car to carry the insurance coverage already required for conventional vehicles. This ensures that autonomous cars are covered by the same liability and medical expense protections as other cars on the road.
