TL;DR

California’s DMV unveiled regulations allowing police to issue notices of AV noncompliance to manufacturers when driverless cars commit moving violations, with a 30-second response requirement for manufacturers and penalties for entering active emergency zones. Effective July 1, the rules are part of a broader 2024 AV law intended to boost public safety as Waymo, Tesla and others test in the state.
