Jurisdictions might be on-the-hook for their self-driving car laws that allow for autonomous cars—which might get into mishaps or crashes
There are now 29 states that have various driverless laws on their books,: Alabama, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Michigan, Mississippi, Nebraska, New York, Nevada, North Carolina, North Dakota, Oregon, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia, Vermont, Washington, and Wisconsin, plus Washington, D.C.
The discussion included aspects about which states have gone out of their way to court automakers and tech firms to bring their public roadway tryouts into their jurisdictions, and which ones have not yet taken that bold step.
Overall, this can make the authorities of the particular locale look smart, hip, and allow them to catch the wave on a hot innovation that will propel them and their local into the national spotlight.There is a downside though that can also sometimes bite the early adopters of new tech.
