AV Safety Data Act

This bill would require the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) to issue rules within 90 days requiring makers and operators of self-driving vehicles and vehicles with Level 2 driver assistance systems to send it crash information and a monthly report. The monthly report would include miles driven on public roads, collisions that injured pedestrians, cyclists, or people in other vehicles, and details on events where a vehicle stopped in a travel lane or interfered with transit, police, first responders, or work zones. Data from Level 2 vehicles could only be reported if collected while the system was on or just before a stoppage event, and could not include personal information about the driver. NHTSA would post the reports publicly online starting 120 days after the law takes effect. NHTSA could not rescind or reduce these rules for 10 years.
