2 00 PM Meeting Adjourned / Walking Tour Michigan Connected and Automated Vehicle working group The 2018 winter meeting of the Michigan Connected and Automated Vehicle working group was held on January 30, 2018, at the Link Engineering Dearborn Technical Center (401 Southfield Rd., Dearborn, MI 48120). Meeting Notes Adela Spulber, Transportation Systems Analyst at the Center for Automotive Research (CAR), opened the meeting and discussed the agenda, working group mission, and noteworthy Connected and Automated Vehicle (CAV) events. Adela highlighted CAR s upcoming Industry Briefing, Artificial Intelligence Applications to Driver Assistance and Vehicle Automation, which will take place on February 15, 2018, at the VisTaTech Center (18600 Haggerty Rd., Livonia, MI). After Adela s introduction, Terry Woychowski, Vice-President of North American Test Operations at Link Engineering Company, welcomed the group and gave an overview of Link Engineering s activities regarding testing equipment and services.

3 Terry specifically described Link s tests of adaptive braking, electronic stability control, and lane departure systems. Following Terry s presentation, Dr. Edward Straub, Technical Program Director at the American Center for Mobility, discussed the challenges and roles of CAV testing. Edward began by pointing that CAV testing is cross-disciplinary and related to many standards across industries. Also, CAV testing covers not only the performance of components and software but also the decision-making ability of systems evaluating the Automated driving task, in other words. That will require developing an ever-evolving scenario catalog as well as criteria for passing the tests. Finally, Edward gave an update on ACM s development. ACM opened its high-speed loop in December 2017 and will continue building different parts of the proving ground in the next years. After Edward s presentation, Jennifer Dukarski, Attorney at Butzel Long, addressed the top legal issues related to Connected and Automated vehicles.

4 Jennifer first explained that while companies have great opportunities to monetize data, they also need to address privacy and security concerns and comply with the relevant and international legal framework. Related to cybersecurity, cases involving speculative hacking might increase in number and importance over the next years, and upcoming decisions on data breach cases in other industries might affect their outcomes. Jennifer also pointed out that a critical issue related to warranty will be dealing with components that have a life expectancy inferior to that of the Vehicle . Jennifer also explained that the current framework for dealing with product liability will be sufficient to cover CAV-related issues and does not necessarily need to evolve. Finally, on liability, Jennifer indicated that CAVs raise many questions (such as liability when an automaker fails to train a new user to operate a Vehicle correctly), but also provides answers (because more data will be available to investigate Vehicle crashes).

5 Following Jennifer s presentation, Scott Shogan, Vice-President and CAV Market Leader at WSP, facilitated the discussion on a few of the latest CAV topics. The discussion focused on the evolution of the federal Automated Vehicle Policy. The working group members exchanged views on the elements that should be included in the third edition of the Policy. Then, the participants debated on the essential characteristics that would make an area the right place for first deployments of Automated taxi networks, namely detailed maps, controlled environments such as airports and university campuses, and an informed public. After a short break, Collin Castle, ITS Program Manager at the Michigan Department of Transportation, provided an update on MDOT s CAV activities. Collin presented the Department s new CAV Strategic Plan, which will be available on MDOT s website in the following weeks. Also, MDOT released a Connected Signals Policy, which states that all new traffic signals on the MDOT system will be CV-enabled, and details the technical requirements.

6 Then, Collin mentioned a few of MDOT s partnerships, notably the red light violation warning project with General Motors, the work zone data harmonization part of the Smart Belt Coalition, platooning testing with TARDEC, cross-border CAV testing with Magna and Continental, and the Coalition for Safety Sooner. Finally, Collin informed working group members about the 2018 ITS America Annual Meeting & Expo, which will take place June 4-7 at Cobo Center in Detroit. The call for papers is open until March 1st, and the call for demonstrations is open until March 15. More information about exhibits and demonstrations is available on the event s website ( ) and by contacting Michele Mueller, Sr. Project Manager at MDOT and chair of the Technology Showcase for the event Allison Drutchas, Counsel Autonomous Vehicles at General Motors, reviewed the most significant developments for Automated Vehicle law and policy in 2017.

7 Allison compared the two federal bills in progress, the House of Representatives SELF DRIVE Act and the Senate s AV START Act. Allison also analyzed the changes brought to the Automated Vehicle Policy by the 2017 update. Finally, Allison focused on state legislation, specifically on seven states including Michigan that recently removed barriers to Automated Vehicle deployments, enabled self-certification of these vehicles similar to the federal level, set insurance coverage requirements, and maintained current liability standards. Gerald Lane, Senior Engineer, Business Developer and Project Manager at Great Lakes Systems & Technology LLC (GLS&T), closed the meeting with an overview of the 2018 Intelligent Ground Vehicle Competition - Self Drive Challenge. The event will take place June 1-4, 2018 at Oakland University in Rochester, MI and is an excellent opportunity for companies to interact with student engineers and identify potential recruits.

8 At the end of the meeting, working group members had the opportunity to tour the Link Engineering Dearborn Technical Center. MDOT maintains a webpage dedicated to its work related to CAV technologies ( ,1607,7-151-9621_11041_38217---, ). The page includes documents, presentations, and other materials that may be of interest to CAV stakeholders. Meeting packets containing materials (agenda, meeting notes, attendance, and presentation slides) from past Michigan Connected and Automated Vehicle working group meetings are also available on this page.
