Deborah Hersman, chairman of the U.S. National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) said that Google’s self-driving cars should be equipped with a recording system, reports Huffington Post.
The vehicles should be safe and be equipped with mandatory data recorders that would log any crash or mishap, according to Hersman.
“When you have a driverless car, you have to demonstrate on the front end that you have the data that shows it’s safe. But we would also say, you need to make sure you have good data recording capabilities, so when there is an event, you can understand what happened,” Hersman said in an interview at the Governors Highway Safety Association’s annual meeting. “There’s got to be good data demonstrated and good data captured.”
