The presence of autonomous vehicles (AV) is an effort to reduce road accidents which are identified as being caused by human factors. On the other hand, the realization of AV in some places has a bad reality that triggers serious accidents.
The government plans to use an autonomous electric vehicle ( AV) system in the National Capital City (IKN) of the Archipelago. For the first time, the Navya Arma autonomous mini electric bus was also operated by Sinar Mas Land in the BSD area, Banten.
On the other hand, the development of autonomous vehicles was born along with the adoption of electric technology and the use of internet technology in vehicles. One of the countries that started to operate a lot of AV is the United States.
There, the birth of AV was stimulated by information technology companies. Call it Google and Tesla.
Furthermore, the United States has made guidelines so that uncontrolled transportation remains safe for the public.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) which is part of the Department of Transport (DOT) conducts research on self-driving vehicles to save lives, prevent injuries, and reduce the economic costs of road accidents.
NHTSA started with automated vehicle (AV) 2.0 technology guidance in 2016. Their vision is for safety.
Two years later or on October 4, 2018 the system was developed to AV 3.0. The goal is to prepare for the future of transportation.
It is based on the DOT which provides guidance for US states to consider test driver training and licensing.
It also offers guidance for testing entities to consider methods of driver engagement during testing.
“AV 3.0 offers our nation a plan to guide the development of exciting new technologies. As technology advances in motor vehicle transportation, safety must remain a top priority," wrote nhtsa.gov as quoted on Saturday (21/5/2022).
The latest is AV 4.0 whose goal is to ensure US leadership and automated vehicle technology. This guide was announced in January 2020.
"AV 4.0 seeks to ensure the US Government's consistent approach to AV technology, and details the authority, research and investment made so that the US can continue to lead the research, development, and integration of AV technology," explains the NHTSA website.
On the other hand, the presence of AV is an effort to reduce road accidents which are identified as mostly caused by human factors. On the other hand, the realization of AV in some places has a bad reality that triggers serious accidents. Is Indonesia ready to develop similar protection guidelines?
