In today’s suspense hearing, California Senate Appropriations Committee unanimously approved CA Senate Bill AB 316, which requires that autonomous vehicles weighing over 10,001 pounds have a “human safety operator” (i.e. a driver) physically present whenever on public roads.
The bill also requires that the California DMV submit a policy report in 5 years to the state Legislature evaluating the performance of AV trucks and their impact on public safety and the labor market.
