316.83 Autonomous vehicle grading standards for roads on State Highway System.—The Department of Transportation shall coordinate with federal, regional, and local partners, as well as industry representatives, to establish standards by which roads on the State Highway System shall be graded according to their compatibility with the operation of autonomous vehicles. In establishing such standards, the department shall consider factors including, but not limited to, the structural adequacy and safety of each road and the particular challenges that the overall driving environment of each road may present to a fully autonomous vehicle operating with the automated driving system engaged. Autonomous vehicle grading standards established pursuant to this section shall be incorporated into standards for transportation projects involving the construction of new roads or maintenance of existing roads on the State Highway System.
