Outline Today’s Automobile: Its Mobility & Liabilities Addressing the Liabilities: – Moderating Behavior – Mitigating Crashes – Avoiding Crashes through automation/SmartDrivingCars What is the vision Where are we now How insurance gets us there.

The Automobile’s 1 st 125 Years ( ) Benz patent st Automobile Benz patent st Automobile Benz Circa 2011 Delivered: Enormous Personal Freedom & Mobility But…Safe Operation Requires Continuous Vigilance

We Love the Freedom & Mobility But…Continuous Vigilance is an unrealistic requirement for drivers

Txtng while driving is out of control…

TravelTainment Industry Wants Everyone’sAttention

In In 717 out of 723 accidents ((99%) “In 717 out of 723 crashes (99%), a driver behavioral error caused or contributed to the crash”

Early Estimate of Motor Vehicle Traffic Fatalities in 2012

What is the Cost? Using AAA Liability Rates per Fatality and InjuryAAA

What is the Cost per Driver? Using AAA Liability Rates per Fatality and InjuryAAA

Who Pays? Using AAA Liability Rates per Fatality and InjuryAAA

Who Pays What? Using AAA Liability Rates per Fatality and InjuryAAA

Who Pays What? Using AAA Liability Rates per Fatality and InjuryAAA – AAA : AAA

How do we Get These Costs Under Control (and possibly enhance Mobility)?

Modify Driver Behavior... Kirkland, WA Laudable, but… Not Likely to be Effective

Crash Mitigation (air bags, seat belts, crash worthiness, …) Crash Mitigation (air bags, seat belts, crash worthiness, …) Good News: Effective in reducing Deaths and Accident Severity Bad News: Ineffective in reducing Expected Accident Liability & Ineffective in reducing Insurance Rates Bad News: Ineffective in reducing Expected Accident Liability & Ineffective in reducing Insurance Rates Up to today: The Primary Purview of

Preliminary Statement of Policy Concerning Automated Vehicles Level 0 (No automation) The human is in complete and sole control of safety-critical functions (brake, throttle, steering) at all times. Level 1 (Function-specific automation) The human has complete authority, but cedes limited control of certain functions to the vehicle in certain normal driving or crash imminent situations. Example: electronic stability control Level 2 (Combined function automation) Automation of at least two control functions designed to work in harmony (e.g., adaptive cruise control and lane centering) in certain driving situations. Enables hands-off-wheel and foot-off-pedal operation. Driver still responsible for monitoring and safe operation and expected to be available at all times to resume control of the vehicle. Example: adaptive cruise control in conjunction with lane centering Level 3 (Limited self-driving) Vehicle controls all safety functions under certain traffic and environmental conditions. Human can cede monitoring authority to vehicle, which must alert driver if conditions require transition to driver control. Driver expected to be available for occasional control. Example: Google car Level 4 (Full self-driving automation) Vehicle controls all safety functions and monitors conditions for the entire trip. The human provides destination or navigation input but is not expected to be available for control during the trip. Vehicle may operate while unoccupied. Responsibility for safe operation rests solely on the automated system SmartDrivingCars & Trucks Extending its vehicle safety standards from Crash Mitigation to Crash Avoidance with Aim at Full Self-Driving Automation

Preliminary Statement of Policy Concerning Automated Vehicles What the Levels Deliver: Levels 1-> 3: Increased Safety, Comfort & Convenience Primarily a Consumer Play Level 4 (Driverless Opportunity) : Efficiency, Equity Revolutionizes “Mass Transit” by enabling the provision of mobility without incurring a Labor Cost Level 4 (Driverless Opportunity) : Efficiency, Equity Revolutionizes “Mass Transit” by enabling the provision of mobility without incurring a Labor Cost Primarily a Fleet Play

1990s – National Automated Highway System Research Program (NAHSRP) ( ) Goal to develop specifications for a fully automated highway system Benefits: – 1. Roadway capacity (led to focus on platooning) – 2. Safety – 3. Robust to Weather, Mobility, Energy, Land Use, Commercial efficiency, travel time Focused on automated roadways exclusively serving fully automated vehicles.

Evolution of SmartDrivingCars Concept

Current State of SmartDrivingCars Much of the public interest has been promoted by the car. – It is not driverless… Not yet – But substantial advancements have focused on: Development of a self-driving vehicle that can operate in the existing environment. – Motivated by fact: >90% of road traffic accidents involve human error. So… remove the human from the loop. – Often… People really do not want to drive. Driven over 500,000 miles in self-driving mode

What’s in the Showroom Today? A number of car companies have been offering active Forward Collision Avoidance Systems for several years – Volvo – Acura – Mercedes – Subaru – …

Preliminary Results are Disappointing

But what has been sold so far doesn’t really work…

However, It seems that some manufacturers are finally …. And Serious about using it sell cars Getting Serious about Collision Avoidance And Serious about having it work

(Available in ‘14 S-Class) $475 Pass-through becomes: $320 Therefore: I get Intelligent Drive for Free (thank you Google) !! Plus: Prob. of my car killing me is reduced factor: 2/3*.81= 0.54 (half) Prob. of my car injuring me is reduced factor: 2/3*.65= 0.44 I “Save” my expected “deductible self-insurance”: $247/yr I have more Comfort I have more Convenience I have “Anxiety” relief What a great Business Case! I’m a Buyer!

With Mercedes as the Market Leader offering “Level 2-” SmartDriving Technology at an incremental price tag that can be absorbed by a “Price Leading” Insurance Company, should lead to: Viral adoption by the car buying public “Moore’s Law type of price/performance improvement Market-driven Transition to “Level 2” and “Level 3” at same or even lower price structure Adoption and enhancement rates that are comparable to that enjoyed by airbags may be likely Expected Implications… Other automakers will be enticed to follow (race seems to have already started)
