University South Carolina Prof Says Europe Ahead Of USA On Regulating Driver-Assist Technologies

In an article in CNN Business, Bryant Walker Smith, a professor at the University of South Carolina law school, said that European regulators are far ahead of the United States on regulating driver-assist technologies. Smith said that technologies like pedestrian detection and automatic braking are sensible to mandate on new cars, and there should be performance standards for them. “There’s low-hanging fruit,” Smith said. “We could save lives far earlier than we have self-driving cars.”
