This fascinating podcast with Professor Bryant Walker Smith provides great insight into the legal issues surrounding autonomous driving.
The session begins with an overview of the state of autonomous driving. We discuss how autonomous passenger vehicles differ from autonomous trucking. We also explore the additional human resources that will be required to ensure that autonomous vehicles are operated in a safe manner.
The following are among the issues discussed during the podcast:
- Which regulatory authorities need to approve autonomous vehicles?
- How does the governing regulatory framework vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction?
- Who bears liability if an autonomous vehicle is responsible for an auto accident?
- What might be the impact on insurance premiums as autonomous vehicles are more widely diffused?
- To what extent might drivers and accident lawyers oppose autonomous driving?
- What are the risks of cyberattacks on autonomous driving?
- Are EVs or combustion engine vehicles more likely to become the dominant autonomous platforms?
- Will autonomous vehicles weigh more or less than human operated vehicles? How will the answer impact the fatality of accidents and the infrastructure?

The United States is about to surrender its sovereignty to the machinations of the World Health Organization and other internationalist bodies. Once this happens, the WHO will be able to force the United States to acquiesce to its authoritarian demands.
Simply by deeming anything it wishes (climate change, racism, inequality) as a health emergency, the WHO can require its signatory nations to restrict the prescription of approved and effective medicines, enforce mandatory vaccinations, implement vaccine passports, ram through quarantines, restrict free speech and rewrite border control laws.
Globalists have written that, during times of climate crises, governments can justifiably limit certain democratic institutions and processes. They support “imposing a climate litmus test on those who seek public office.” The Marxists that run the globalist institutions also favor relaxing private property rights.
