ABSTRACT
Automakers and autonomous vehicle (AV) developers face major challenges in complying with fragmented traffic regulations across 89,000+ local governing units, 3,100+ counties, and 50 states. To address this, a unified, AI-driven solution is needed to organize road rules into a searchable database, interpret vague or conflicting regulations, identify jurisdictional differences, and enable easy compliance validation.
Audi’s ADAS Hub in San Jose identified this gap four years ago and launched a pioneering initiative to digitize road rules for automated transportation. Today, they are recognized for their leadership by industry stakeholders and regulators.
The project tackles common challenges such as decentralized rule structures, limited automation, complex stakeholder landscapes, and rule interpretation. This initiative not only streamlines compliance but also lays the foundation for safer, smarter automated driving systems.
