European Commission (CAV regulation)

The European Commission’s CAV regulation refers to rules and standards they set for Connected and Autonomous Vehicles (CAVs) within Europe. These regulations aim to ensure safety, security, and interoperability of self-driving and connected cars across EU member states. They establish technical requirements, data sharing protocols, and safety assessments to make sure CAVs operate reliably on public roads, protect users’ data privacy, and foster innovation. Essentially, the regulation provides a legal framework to encourage the development and deployment of advanced vehicle technologies while maintaining high safety and security standards for all road users.
