New tests for autonomous vehicle type approval
RDW Netherlands presentation

Autonomous Vehicle Test & Development

Day 1 – 16:00 – Shifting legislation for automated vehicles
Gerben Feddes, senior advisor intelligent mobility, RDW, Netherlands
The RDW is the Netherlands vehicle authority. We face new challenges in the type approval of vehicles. New intelligent products also need to pass the type approval. But legislation is missing. We foresee new legislation: why have a complex admittance procedure when vehicles are ever changing? Is the type approval going to shift from admittance to in-use compliance? And is safety shifting from in-vehicle (e.g. ABS) to the interaction between vehicles (e.g. V2X)? The presentation gives an overview of new tests needed.
