Description: We now live in the age of automation. Advanced computer systems are now doing most of what humans traditionally used to do: writing, researching, editing, organizing, composing, and so on. To that list, now add driving: by far one of the most popular activities in America. Nearly 30 states now authorize self-driving cars. Self-driving cabs now operate in San Francisco. Most new cars also now have a self-driving feature. Before the age of automation, if there was a collision, accident, or traffic infraction, the law looked to the responsible driver to serve time, pay the ticket, cover damages, or receive a judgment. But if you take the driver out of the driving enterprise, who will the law hold liable and why? This course will address those questions, looking at the existing tort, traffic, and criminal laws as well as the new slate of state legislation that now applies in this area.
