Introduction to Autonomous Vehicles

About the course

“In 20 years, driving a traditional car will feel like riding a horse on the highway today”.

Autonomous vehicles, driverless cars or self-driving cars are not a thing of the future

– they are already in development.

This technology is revolutionary and has the potential to change the way we commute. The development of autonomous cars is changing not only the way we buy and use cars but also our cities, economy, society, and the environment.

The disruption in the automobile industry has led to many of the major automobile players entering this space. Its great potential has even caught the eyes of the major technology giants who are developing their own prototype vehicles. Autonomous driving will bring many advantages which are not just limited to consumers – to name a few, it will help reduce pollution and emissions, make road travel safer, and make urban spaces more effective.

As the industry grows and transforms itself, we must grow our knowledge and expertise in this space to understand the risks and ensure that our regulatory, governance and business framework is adapted to the changing risk profile of the industry.

This 90-minute insurance webinar will look at how technology is transforming road travel, the types of technology being used, how it will impact motor insurance, legal liability and the consequent opportunities and challenges for motor insurers and related organisations. We will also cover the risks and limitations of using such technologies. The webinar will also serve to inform delegates on the very latest technological and legal developments in this area.

This course is being delivered by London Market Training Ltd in partnership with Intrepid Tech Ventures Ltd.
