Abstract: Methods and systems for determining fault for an accident involving a vehicle having one or more autonomous and/or semi-autonomous operation features are provided. According to certain aspects, performance data indicative of the performance of the features may be used to determine fault for a vehicle accident, such as a collision, by allocating fault for the accident between a vehicle operator, the autonomous operation features, or a third party. The allocation of fault may be used to determine an adjustment to an insurance policy and/or adjust coverage levels for an insurance policy. The allocation of fault may further be used to adjust risk levels or profiles associated with the autonomous or semi-autonomous operation features, which may be applied to other vehicles having the same or similar features.

Autonomous vehicle operation feature monitoring and evaluation of effectiveness
Blake Konrardy,Scott T. Christensen,Gregory Hayward,Scott Farris +3 more
- 15 May 2015
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a system for monitoring use and determining risks associated with operation of a vehicle having one or more autonomous operation features. But the system is not designed for the use of autonomous control decisions, such as actions the feature would have taken to control the vehicle, but which were not taken because a vehicle operator was controlling the relevant aspect of vehicle operation.
