Scenario 4: Automated highway driving

Benefits: §  Safety §  Driver monitoring §  Significantly reduced

workload §  Improved productivity

Challenges/Issues: §  Driver acceptance §  Public perception §  Selected roads

Driven by:

Some of the challenges §  No car manufacturing in Australia §  Limited budgets available §  Leadership from government/Insufficient

harmonisation: – Legislation – Design practices (traffic control devices, etc.)

§  Automation (safety features) is not incentivised
