What we focus on

We work to make sure the UK’s regulatory system is fit for purpose and can support the deployment of self-driving vehicles on public roads. Drawing on a diverse range of businesses from across our membership, the group considers industry requirements from three perspectives:

  • technical

  • insurance

  • legal

How the group works

  • Leadership: an elected Chair and Vice Chair, each serving a two-year term

  • Who can join: open to all techUK members, with an expression of interest explaining how you’ll support the group’s objectives

  • Meetings: five formal meetings a year, plus regular ad hoc meetings to drive policy development and thought leadership

  • Communication: members are kept up to date through the group’s email distribution list
