Hilfinger Featured in Corporate Counsel about Connected Cars & Autonomous Vehicles Survey Results
November 2, 2017
Corporate Counsel
Partner Steve Hilfinger was featured in a Corporate Counsel article, “Interstate Regulatory Alignment: Keys to the Self-Driving Car?” about the results of Foley’s 2017 Connected Cars & Autonomous Vehicles Survey.
“Right now, some of the regulation is happening at the state level. Most of it has been in the way of testing, enabling on-road testing where you don’t necessarily have to have a driver if you satisfy the different requirements,” said Hilfinger. “It’d be very difficult to have a patchwork of 50 different state laws. I think you’re going to see some federalization and rulemaking by the [National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA)].”
This story also ran in Legaltech News.
