The historical period we are living is characterized by very rapid technological innovations, on many different fields. Our society and our legal system are not always ready to immediately embrace new technologies as they usually need a testing and adaptation period, but also adequate regulation. An important innovation already implemented has been the rides sharing (sharing mobility). It is very relevant in the market, especially in Italy, and has changed the way we perceive cars ownership and use. Self-driving cars are also a very important innovation, not only due to the fact that they significantly increase the number of users or the available mobility services, but also mainly for a significant increase in road safety concerns. Based on that, this paper will analyze how the Italian legal system regulates the protection for victims of traffic accidents caused by autonomous vehicles in terms of civil liability and motor insurance rules.

Abstract

The historical period we are living is characterized by very rapid technological innovations, on many different fields. Our society and our legal system are not always ready to immediately embrace new technologies as they usually need a testing and adaptation period, but also adequate regulation. An important innovation already implemented has been the rides sharing (sharing mobility). It is very relevant in the market, especially in Italy, and has changed the way we perceive cars ownership and use. Self-driving cars are also a very important innovation, not only due to the fact that they significantly increase the number of users or the available mobility services, but also mainly for a significant increase in road safety concerns. Based on that, this paper will analyze how the Italian legal system regulates the protection for victims of traffic accidents caused by autonomous vehicles in terms of civil liability and motor insurance rules.
