Amendment 9 #
Draft opinion
Paragraph 2
Paragraph 2
2. Takes the view that, in the light of the dynamic technological changes in the sector, there is a need to clarify who should bear the damage in the event of accidents caused by fully autonomous vehicles; there is a particular need to examine whether the view that a very small proportion of all accidents has so far been attributable to technical factors would justify a liability shift to producer responsibility which, as a risk factor which is independent of negligence, can be linked simply to the risk posed by bringing a self-driving vehicle onto the market; and there is a further need to examine whether specific road safety obligations on the part of the vehicle owner and instruction obligations applicable to the driver in each case might adequately compensate for this liability shift; calls therefore on the Commission to adapt the current EU legal framework and, if necessary, introduce new rules on the basis of which responsibility and liability are allocated;

Paragraph 6
6. Welcomes the Commission proposals to regulate the protection of vehicles against cyber-attacks and to equip autonomous cars with data recorders to help determine the cause of accidents; calls on the Commission to further clarify rules on the protection and sharing of the data collected by those vehicles and access to such data, while fully respecting the GDPR rules and enabling interoperability between systems; ; there is a need to examine whether and how to guarantee that users can monitor and understand the access to the data, and to consider introducing block chain technology in this regard; also calls on the Commission to enable interoperability between systems and data portability in order to prevent lock-in effects and promote fair competition and innovation, thereby enabling users to choose among various service providers and ensuring that smaller vehicle providers do not lose their livelihoods;

Paragraph 7
7. Notes that similar questions in relation to intellectual property rights and corresponding usage rights will arise in respect of artificial intelligence for the purpose of autonomous mobility as in other areas, such as proprietary or usage rights to code, data and inventions created by the artificial intelligence itself; considers, however, that general solutions should be found to these questions which are as general as possible.
