Stresses the expected massive increase in data produced by and gathered and transmitted from autonomous vehicles and underlines the need to use non- personal, anonymised data in order to deploy autonomous vehicles;for the whole chain to use these data in order to encourage the deployment of autonomous vehicles and to further develop innovation in the framework of new mobility solutions.
Amendment 75 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 10
Paragraph 10
10. Underlines that fully autonomous vehicles will be commercially available by 2030 and that appropriate regulatory frameworks ensuring their safe operation need to be in place as soon as possible in order to address the resulting changes;
Amendment 84 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 11 a (new)
Paragraph 11 a (new)
11 a. Underlines the importance of adopting the new General Safety Regulation for motor vehicles, given the short-term life-saving potential of mandatory installation of new vehicle safety technologies, which will furthermore also be used for the deployment of connected and automated vehicles in the future;
Amendment 96 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 13
Paragraph 13
13. Underlines the need for clear legislation, that is regularly reviewed, updated where necessary, and harmonized in terms of data sampling, storage and access, obligating the installation of event data recorders for highly automated vehicles in line with the eCall Regulation5 in order to clarify and enable the tackling, as soon as possible, of issues of liability; _________________ 5OJ L 123, 19.5.2015, p. 77.
Amendment 103 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 14 a (new)
Paragraph 14 a (new)
14 a. Argues that both passive and active safety features have an important role in reducing the number as well as severity of collisions, and that road collisions with autonomous vehicles will still occur, notably in mixed traffic conditions; underlines therefore the importance of stringent passive safety requirements for those vehicles to be maintained in order to protect vehicle occupants as well as other road users, especially those from more vulnerable groups.
Amendment 109 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 16
Paragraph 16
16. Highlights the expected congesRecalls that technological innovations challenges to urban mobility resulting from the widespread uptake of autonomous vehicles and underlines the need for new solutions incorporating car sharing, ride hailing and other models;annot solve, in isolation, environmental issues, and that studies indicate that the widespread uptake of autonomous vehicles could make congestion and pollution worse; calls on authorities to develop policies that will ensure that autonomous vehicles will increase and improve travel options for all citizens, without negatively affecting the demand for and investments in public transport.
Amendment 114 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 16 a (new)
Paragraph 16 a (new)
16 a. Underlines that while the deployment of connected and automated mobility could bring substantial benefits, the technologies currently available on the market present vulnerabilities that could become serious threats for users, other vehicles or pedestrians; argues therefore that societal acceptance will only be achieved if autonomous vehicles can offer the highest safety and security standards, as well as more and better travel options, which are affordable and environmentally-friendly.
Amendment 142 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 23 a (new)
Paragraph 23 a (new)
23 a. Improves the framework conditions for autonomous driving on rail and accelerate the transition to a digital rail sector, notes the European Train Control System (ETCS) serves as the basis for automation in the rail sector, which is achieved by linking the ETCS to the Automatic Train Operation (ATO); urges the Commission during the deployment of ETCS to be accelerated and priorized in EU funding schemes.
