Each manufacturer introducing a new HAV or automated driving system into interstate commerce shall provide a safety evaluation report.

The Department of Transportation shall: (1) establish a technical committee to make recommendations for HAV and automated driving system safety, (2) establish a working group on education efforts for advanced driver assist and automated driving systems, and (3) research the traffic safety implications of HAVs.

Each manufacturer of an HAV or automated driving system shall execute a written plan for identifying and reducing cybersecurity risks to the motor vehicle safety of such vehicles and systems.
