Abstract

With the rapid development of artificial intelligence technology, the tort of self-driving car challenges the current traffic accident liability based on driver's fault. It can be considered to construct the applicable rules of "motor vehicle traffic accident liability and product liability" according to the intelligent grade of autopilot system. In the conditional and highly autopilot stage, according to the fault identification standard of "integration of human and vehicle", the producers and drivers bear joint and several liability externally, and bear proportional liability internally according to various reasons.

Keywords
