AI Summary
This bill, the LEAD'R Act or the Let NHTSA Enforce Automated Vehicle Driving Regulations Act, provides for federal preemption of state laws regulating highly automated vehicles and automated driving systems. It establishes the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) as the sole authority in regulating the design, construction, and performance of these vehicles and systems. The bill also defines key terms such as "automated driving system," "dynamic driving task," and "highly automated vehicle," and allows for revisions to these definitions by NHTSA. Additionally, the bill clarifies that compliance with NHTSA standards does not exempt manufacturers from common law liability, and that states can still regulate areas such as registration, licensing, and law enforcement related to these vehicles.
