自动驾驶汽车事故中担责主体及责任划分研究

Research on the Responsible Subject and Responsibility Division in Automated Vehicle Accidents

作为人工智能发展的新型产物,自动驾驶汽车不仅能大大降低交通事故发生概率,也能够帮助老人、盲人等非传统驾驶群体享受到出行便利,具有广阔的市场空间和丰厚的市场价值。然而当前自动驾驶技术尚在发展阶段,无法完全避免交通事故的发生,相较于传统机动车交通事故侵权案件,自动驾驶汽车事故侵权主体认定与责任划分面临两难选择,为此不仅需要应用传统机动车交通事故责任规则来实现对驾驶员不当操作的规制,还应利用严厉的产品责任惩戒产品缺陷,推动企业持续科技创新。

As a new product of the development of artificial intelligence,automated vehicles can not only greatly reduce the probability of traffic accidents,but also help the elderly,blind and other non-traditional driving groups to enjoy the travel convenience,which has a broad market space and huge market value.However,the current autonomous driving technology is still in the development stage and cannot completely avoid the occurrence of traffic accidents.Compared with the tort cases of traditional motor vehicle accidents,automated vehicles tort accidents have difficulties in the determination of the infringement subject and the division of responsibility.Therefore,it isnecessary to apply not only the traditional motor vehicle accident liability to regulate drivers’improper operation behavior,but also the strict product liability to promote the continuous scientific and technological innovation of enterprises.
