It\u2019s a well-known theme: new technologies both reflect and perpetuate existing socio-cultural practices. In the US the default is driving, in the EU walking is more common. One of the recurrent questions with all \u2018smart tech\u2019 therefore is: Who has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bijt.org\/wordpress\/?s=Right+to+the+city\">the right to the city<\/a>? Without any regulations, new \u2018smart\u2019 tech tend to further exacerbate the power and privilege differentials between pedestrians and car drivers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cUnlike their European peers, American car regulators do not require \u2014 or even offer \u2014 any kind of safety preapproval for a new car model or technology. Instead, car companies \u201cself-certify\u201d that their vehicles comply with federal guidelines pertaining to everything from steering wheels to brake fluids. But no such rules address the driver assistance and autonomous technologies that are critical to the car\u2019s future \u2014 and to the safety of everyone who walks, bikes, or drives.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"828\" height=\"1658\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bijt.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/img_1597.jpg\" class=\"wp-image-1883\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bijt.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/img_1597.jpg 828w, https:\/\/www.bijt.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/img_1597-350x700.jpg 350w, https:\/\/www.bijt.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/img_1597-75x150.jpg 75w, https:\/\/www.bijt.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/img_1597-768x1538.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bijt.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/img_1597-767x1536.jpg 767w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 828px) 100vw, 828px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/2022\/9\/12\/23339219\/us-auto-regulation-type-approval-self-certification-av-tesla\">Link to article &gt;&gt;<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"syndication-links\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Verge writes about the difference between US and EU policy and regulation concerning self-driving cars.
